 ## Task Management
 
-- Plan any task in the `TODO.md` file with clear steps and mark them as completed when done. Move completed sections to DONE.md. Write entry in root `CHANGELOG.md` for any significant changes. Avoid using in-memory todo lists or update them frequently to sync from the `TODO.md` file.
+- Plan any task in the `.github/instructions/TODO.md` file with clear steps and mark them as completed when done. Move completed sections to `.github/instructions/DONE.md`. Write entry in root `CHANGELOG.md` for any significant changes. Avoid using in-memory todo lists or update them frequently to sync from the `TODO.md` file.
 - Before taking any action except for planning and writing `TODO.md`, always ask user for confirmation, accept `go`, `ok`, `yes`, `next`, or `continue` to proceed. If the user says `no`, `stop`, or `cancel`, abort the action and return to planning.

+
+## 2026-08-07
+
+- Completed runtime validation section from TODO.
+- Runtime video normalization tests executed in running `linearvoid-playout` container using ffmpeg/ffprobe.
+- Verified normalized outputs for MOV, MKV, VFR, and 5.1 inputs: `h264`, `yuv420p`, `30/1`, `aac`, `48000`, `2 channels`.
+- Concat continuity check passed with `CONCAT_OK`; output duration `25.344667` seconds.
+- Responsive viewport test on live viewer (`390x844`, `412x915`) detected 8px horizontal overflow from `100vw` usage in viewer container styles.
+- Fixed overflow in source by changing `.lv-body` and `.viewer-shell` width from `100vw` to `100%` in `frontend/src/style.css`.
+- Redis restart test:
+  - Admin session endpoint returned 200 before and after Redis restart.
+  - Presence key survived Redis restart in test-lab configuration.
+  - Redis health returned to `healthy` post-restart.
+- Files changed:
+  - `.github/instructions/TODO.md`
+  - `.github/instructions/DONE.md`
+  - `frontend/src/style.css`
+  - `CHANGELOG.md`
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued)
+
+- Completed documentation half of recovery runbook TODO item.
+- Expanded `docs/incident-runbook.md` with quarterly DR drill: prerequisites, outage simulation, restore validation, pass/fail criteria, and evidence template.
+- Split TODO item into:
+  - documented drill (`[x]`)
+  - manual rehearsal execution (`[ ]`)
+- Updated `CHANGELOG.md` with incident runbook drill documentation entry.
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued 2)
+
+- Added manual operations checklist `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md` for Cloudflare + UptimeRobot task execution and evidence capture.
+- Linked checklist from `SETUP.md` Cloudflare section and TODO manual sections.
+- Did not mark manual dashboard items complete; checklist is preparation only.
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued 3)
+
+- Added `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` covering manifest TTL tuning, TTFB baseline method, WebSocket/API benchmarking approach, cache ratio tracking, capacity triggers, and Phase 2/3 plans.
+- Updated TODO and BACKLOG to mark playbook creation done while keeping execution/measurement tasks pending.
+- Linked scaling playbook in `README.md` resources.
+
+## 2026-08-09
+
+- Added WebSocket benchmark summary helper `scripts/loadtest/summarize-artillery.ps1`.
+- Updated `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.ps1` to auto-generate `ws-chat-summary.txt` for `ws` and `all` scenarios.
+- Updated `scripts/loadtest/summarize-k6.ps1` to produce pipeline-friendly output and integrated automatic `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt` generation.
+- Expanded `scripts/loadtest/README.md` with PowerShell-first artifact capture and helper usage for both ws and admin scenarios.
+- Updated `.gitignore` to ignore loadtest artifacts (`artifacts/` and `scripts/loadtest/artifacts/`).
+- Added artifact-to-worksheet field mapping section in `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` so ws/admin worksheet entries map directly to generated summary files.
+- Updated `docs/DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` to mark ws/admin benchmark scaffolding complete while live benchmark execution remains pending.
+- Added `CHANGELOG.md` entry `1.0.10` summarizing loadtest helper automation and playbook mapping updates.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued)
+
+- Completed Phase 1 (test fixtures): documented ffmpeg fixture-generation commands in `playlist_test.go` header comments (valid_720p30, invalid_h265, invalid_24fps).
+- Completed Phase 4 (R2 integration):
+  - Enhanced `SyncToR2` in `playlist.go` to set CacheControl + ContentType based on file extension:
+    - `.m4s`, `.ts`, `.mp4`, `.m4a` -> `public, max-age=31536000, immutable` + `video/MP2T`
+    - `.m3u8` -> `public, max-age=2` + `application/vnd.apple.mpegurl`
+    - unknown extension -> no cache headers
+  - Added three tests: `TestSyncToR2` (segment upload with cache verification), `TestSyncToR2_ManifestCacheHeaders` (manifest upload), `TestSyncToR2_NoCacheHeadersForUnknownExt` (unknown extension).
+  - All 17 playout tests pass (16 pass, 1 pre-existing skip).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 1 marked complete, Phase 4 partially complete (edge cache hit/miss remains manual).
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: Test Fixtures marked complete, R2 Integration Test marked partially complete.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued 2)
+
+- Completed Phase 2 chat tests in `frontend/src/main.test.ts`:
+  - Presence updates: join/leave system messages add and remove users from presence list, sorted rendering.
+  - Private DM flow: togglePrivateDM creates correct dm: room name from sorted usernames.
+  - Message rendering: system messages, self messages (message-self), and other-user messages (message-other) all render correctly.
+  - Total frontend tests: 27 passing (2 test files).
+- Marked Phase 4 "Document stubs/mocks" done (putObject injection pattern).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 2 chat tests checked, Phase 4 stubs checked.
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: User Frontend Tests marked partially complete, R2 stubs checked.
+- Updated CHANGELOG.md with Phase 2 presence/DM/message tests.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued 3)
+
+- Completed Phase 3 admin frontend tests in `frontend/src/admin.test.ts`:
+  - Exported `savePlaylist` and `renderPlaylistSortable` from `admin.ts`.
+  - Added playlist save test (verifies PUT /api/admin/playlist with JSON body).
+  - Added playlist save error handling test (verifies failure status).
+  - Added sortable rendering test (verifies index, paths, remove buttons, comment/blank line skip).
+  - Total frontend tests: 31 passing (2 test files).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 3 playlist/dashboard/API integration all checked.
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: Admin Frontend Tests marked partially complete.
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 2)
+
+- Implemented STREAMING.md production-readiness gaps from plan `.hermes/plans/2026-08-10_164500-production-readiness.md`:
+  - **Task 1-2**: Added `runID` (ISO timestamp format) and monotonic `segSequence` for globally unique segment naming (`r-{ISOTIME}/seg-{seq}.m4s`). Replaced `strftime` pattern with run ID-based path.
+  - **Task 2**: Added `watchAndPublishSegments` using `fsnotify` for real-time per-segment R2 upload (~7s delay). Previously `syncLatestToR2()` only ran after FFmpeg exit.
+  - **Task 3**: Added `publishManifest` with atomic `CopyObject` (temp key → final key) to prevent manifest referencing unconfirmed segments.
+  - **Task 4**: Updated `manifestCacheControl` from `"public, max-age=2"` to `"public, max-age=1, s-maxage=2, must-revalidate"` per STREAMING.md.
+  - **Task 5**: Added `hls.on(Hls.Events.ERROR)` handler in `main.ts` with bounded retries (5x), exponential backoff (2s→32s), reconnecting overlay (spinner + text). Added `showReconnecting`/`hideReconnecting` functions.
+  - **Task 6**: Enriched `HealthHandler` with `run_id`, `active_item`, `playlist_revision`, `last_segment_seq`, `last_r2_pub`, `consecutive_failures`. Added "unhealthy" status when R2 publish is stale (>12s).
+- Files changed: `backend/playout/src/playlist.go`, `playlist_test.go`, `go.mod`, `frontend/src/main.ts`, `main.test.ts`, `style.css`, `index.html`.
+- Updated `.github/instructions/TODO.md`, `BACKLOG.md`, `MEMORY.md`, `DONE.md`.
+- Remaining: CORS on media.linearvoid.tv (Cloudflare R2 config, infrastructure).
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 3)
+
+- Completed Phase 2 (viewer) + Phase 3 (admin) responsive/accessibility tests:
+  - 5 viewer accessibility tests: video controls/attributes, chat panel aria-labels, chat toggle aria-expanded, message input label, reconnecting overlay aria-live/role.
+  - 3 viewer responsive tests: chat-collapsed toggle, CSS grid layout detection, now-playing aria-live.
+  - 3 admin accessibility tests: nav aria-label, active tab aria-current, nav button focusability.
+  - 2 admin responsive tests: tab content visibility, essential tab presence.
+  - Total: 45 frontend tests passing (2 test files).
+- Added coverage reporting: `vitest.config.ts` with v8 provider, thresholds at 20/15/15/20 (statements/branches/functions/lines).
+- Added `test:coverage` script to `package.json`.
+- Fixed CI: bumped Node from 20 to 22 in `ci.yml` and `workers-deploy.yml` (jsdom@30 requires Node 22+). Added `engines` to `package.json`.
+- Updated AGENTS.md: added Required tracking files table with 13 docs and update cadence.
+- All Go vet, Go tests, frontend test:coverage passing.
+- CORS on media.linearvoid.tv remains the only streaming pipeline gap (Cloudflare R2 config, not code).
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 4)
+
+- Verified all test suites pass after streaming pipeline implementation:
+  - Playout: `go mod tidy` (added fsnotify v1.8.0) → all tests pass
+  - Chat: 7 packages pass (go vet + go test)
+  - Frontend: 45 tests pass (2 files), test:coverage meets thresholds (22.92% / 18.44% / 19.01% / 25.42%)
+- Edge cache validation script `scripts/validate-edge-cache.sh` exists.
+- Remaining: CORS on media.linearvoid.tv (Cloudflare R2 bucket CORS config, not a code change). Phases 5-7 are manual/infrastructure only (Cloudflare dashboard, Hetzner provisioning, live benchmarks).
+
+## 2026-08-11
+
+- Consolidated all development tasks from `DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` into `.github/instructions/BACKLOG.md` as the single source of truth. `DEVELOPMENT.md` now obsolete and removed. `TODO.md` references `BACKLOG.md` and `DONE.md`.
+- Fixed R2 endpoint validation in playout service (`backend/playout/src/playlist.go`):
+  - Added `isR2Configured()` checking all four required env vars (`R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`).
+  - `initR2Client()` now returns a clear error if R2 is not configured instead of creating an S3 client with an empty endpoint.
+  - Segment watcher (`watchAndPublishSegments`), `syncLatestToR2()`, and `publishManifest()` are now guarded by `r2Client != nil` — no error spam when R2 is unavailable.
+  - Playout gracefully degrades: local HLS via nginx works without R2.
+- Updated `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml` "Prepare environment" step to include all R2* variables sourced from Gitea secrets (`R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`, `R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ADMIN*\*`), Cloudflare variables (`CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`, `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`), and frontend public URL variables.
+- Updated `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md` "Environment File" section: replaced vague "Cloudflare/R2 variables" bullet with explicit variable lists and added a new "Gitea Secrets" table documenting all 15 required secrets.
+- All playout tests pass (20 tests), `go vet` clean.
+
+## 2026-08-13
+
+- Completed all remaining enhancement tasks (only manual/infrastructure phases left):
+  - **Playout**: automatic media normalization on upload (`media.NormalizeVideo`, `*.normalized.mp4`, statuses `ready`/`needs_normalization`/`normalizing`/`normalization_failed`, `POST /api/admin/media/{id}/normalize`); R2 segment retention (`cleanupOldRuns`, keep last `R2_KEEP_RUNS` runs, `R2_MAX_RETENTION_BYTES` cap); seamless looping (playlist SHA-256 fingerprint + `-start_number`); single `start-playout.sh` entrypoint + `-validate` mode; loop/cleanup metrics.
+  - **Application configuration**: thread-safe JSON runtime config store (`backend/chat/src/config/runtime.go`) shared with playout via `/app/playlist/config.json`; `GET/PUT /api/admin/config`; admin UI config form.
+  - **Matomo analytics**: public `GET /api/matomo` + viewer pageview snippet in `index.html`.
+  - **Chat user accounts**: register/login/logout/session endpoints, bcrypt hashing, `linearvoid_user_session` cookie, viewer sign-in UI.
+  - **DM history & search**: `GET /api/dm/history` (paginated) + `GET /api/dm/search` + DM search UI.
+  - **Chat UI**: typing indicator, user-list toggle, media status badges, "Add to playlist" gated to `ready`.
+  - **Prometheus TSDB retention**: `--storage.tsdb.retention.time=30d` + `--storage.tsdb.retention.size=15GB` in both compose files; alert rule count corrected 8 → 10.
+- Updated `docs/architecture/README.md` to reflect all `[Unreleased]` changes (normalization, looping, retention, runtime config, Matomo, user accounts, DM history/search, new API endpoints, module tables).
+- Released **1.0.13**: promoted changelog, bumped version, tagged and pushed.
+- Extended frontend test coverage: added `counter.test.ts`, reconnecting/typing/auth/websocket tests, admin failure + status-badge tests → 56 tests; statements 19.89% → 28.58% (CI coverage threshold passing).
+- Fixed Go test data race in `TestHandleAdminMediaByID_Normalize` (waits for async normalization goroutine) + shared in-memory SQLite via `SetMaxOpenConns(1)`.
+- Fixed viewer crash: `index.html` was missing the `#messages` chat container (stray `</section>`); restored structure + made `addMessage` defensive.
+- Set `Doto` as the body font (`--font-body`) and added Google Fonts links to admin + login pages.
+- Files changed: across `backend/chat`, `backend/playout`, `frontend`, `docs`, `docker-compose*.yml`, `.github/instructions/*`.

+# DONE
+
+> Completed tasks from [TODO](./TODO.md). Product, feature, and release history lives in [CHANGELOG](./CHANGELOG.md); this file keeps only engineering and ops notes not captured there.
+
+## Manifest run-scoped rewrite — candidate (a) (2026-09-03)
+
+- Playout now publishes the live R2 manifest with run-scoped media URIs. `rewriteManifestToRun` in `backend/playout/src/playlist.go` prefixes each bare relative URI (`seg-*.m4s` / `init.mp4`, plus `#EXT-X-MAP:URI`) with `r-{runID}/` before `publishManifest`'s atomic `.tmp` → `CopyObject` commit; skipped in slate mode. Added a stubbable `copyObject` hook for tests (consistent with `putObject`/`listObjects`/`deleteObjects`).
+- Tests: `playlist_rewrite_test.go` — `TestRewriteManifestToRun`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_AlreadyPrefixedUnchanged`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_HandlesTSAndComments`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_EmptyRunID`, `TestIsMediaURI`, `TestPublishManifest_RewritesToRunScopedURIs`, `TestPublishManifest_SlateNotRewritten`.
+- Docs updated: `STREAMING.md`, `operations/cloudflare-workers-setup.md`, `architecture/README.md` (incl. Level-2 diagram showing the R2-bound `linearvoid-media` Worker and run-scoped layout).
+- **Still pending (in TODO): live Validation** — deploy the updated playout to the test lab and confirm manifest/segment URIs resolve via `media.linearvoid.tv`.
+
+## Test infrastructure & refactors (2026-08-07)
+
+- Chat service `main.go` split into 8 packages (config, auth, db, handlers, ws, media, ratelimit, metrics); `db.RedisClient` + `db.PubSub` interfaces added for mocking.
+- 78 tests total (Go + frontend), all passing. Coverage: auth 97.8%, config 100%, metrics 100%, ratelimit 90.3%, ws 79.6%, handlers 47.2%, media 36.8%, db 14.3%.
+- Playout: 12 tests. Frontend: vitest + jsdom, 6 user + 5 admin smoke tests.
+- CI: `go test -race -cover` with a 50% coverage threshold; SQLite switched to pure-Go `github.com/glebarez/sqlite` (CGO-free, works on Windows).
+- Frontend coverage enforcement: vitest v8 provider, 40% statements/lines + 30% branches/functions thresholds, `test:coverage` script + CI step.
+
+## Backups
+
+- `scripts/backup-db.sh` (daily pg_dump → R2, 14-day retention), `scripts/backup-weekly.sh` (weekly full dump + integrity check, 8-week retention), `scripts/verify-backups.sh` (download → temp Postgres → restore + row counts).
+
+## Gitea self-hosting migration
+
+- Migrated repo + CI/CD from GitHub to Gitea Actions (`git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid`): self-hosted runner, Container Registry convention `git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/<service>:<tag>`, secrets renamed `GITEA_*` → `CI_*`.
+
+## Streaming pipeline gaps (2026-08-10)
+
+- Continuous R2 sync via `fsnotify` (`watchAndPublishSegments`, ~7s delay); run-ID + monotonic segment naming (`r-{ISOTIME}/seg-{seq}.m4s`); atomic manifest publication (upload `.tmp` → `CopyObject`); enriched `/health` (run_id, active_item, playlist_revision, last_segment_seq, last_r2_pub, consecutive_failures); player error recovery (5 retries, 2s→32s exponential backoff, reconnecting overlay).
+- CORS on `media.linearvoid.tv` remains infrastructure-only (Cloudflare R2 config, not code).
+
+## Bug fixes not in CHANGELOG
+
+- **2026-08-13 viewer crash**: `index.html` was missing the `#messages` container, so `addMessage` threw `Cannot read properties of null (reading 'appendChild')` on WebSocket open/message. Restored the chat panel structure and made `addMessage` defensive.
+- **2026-08-15 chat reconnect loop**: after a registered user logged in, the chat panel repeatedly filled with old messages. `connectWebSocket` left the replaced socket's `onclose` handler attached, so each intentional reconnect scheduled another reconnect and every connection re-pulled the room's 50-message history on a 3s loop. Fixed by detaching the old socket's `onclose` before closing and guarding the handler against stale sockets. Regression test added; `npm --prefix frontend test` → 58 tests passing.
+
+## Chat improvements
+
+- Manual smoke: viewer join/leave shows a 3s flash (not a chat row); reconnect <5s shows no duplicate; admin chat-log table has no system rows
+
+## Playout improvements
+
+- Test in Firefox: live playback, rebuffer/recovery, chat sync; record quirks in `docs/STREAMING.md`
+- Rebuild + run playout; confirm `playlist.m3u8` lists ~12 segments at 2s each
+- Manual: verify viewer latency and cache-hit behavior after the change
+
+## Chat sidebar (2026-08-17)
+
+- [x] remove search bar from chat sidebar (not needed for single-room)
+- [x] remove "user" toggle button from chat sidebar (hide for now, add back when user interface is stable)
+- [x] make login/registration form a modal and only toggle it when user is not logged in and clicks "Login" or "Register"
+- [x] when user is logged in, do not show login/registration form
+- [x] make sure each message is only rendered once in the chat log (no duplicates on reconnect or initial load)
+
+### Plan
+
+Files: `frontend/index.html`, `frontend/src/main.ts`, `frontend/src/style.css`.
+
+1. **Remove search bar** (single-room)
+   - `index.html`: delete the `<div id="dm-search-row">` block.
+   - `main.ts`: remove `searchDM()` and the `dm-search-btn` listener; drop the `#dm-search-row` show/hide logic in `switchRoom()` (the `searchRow.hidden = !isDM` lines). Keep `currentDMTarget` only if the "New DM" flow stays.
+
+2. **Remove "Users" toggle button**
+   - `index.html`: delete the `<button id="users-toggle-btn">` button.
+   - `main.ts`: remove `toggleUserList()` and the `users-toggle-btn` listener; drop the now-unused `usersVisible` variable.
+
+3. **Login/registration form as a modal**
+   - `index.html`: wrap the `#auth-panel` form in a modal structure (`.auth-modal` + backdrop) with a close button.
+   - `style.css`: add `.auth-modal` / `.auth-modal-backdrop` styles.
+   - `main.ts`: add `openAuthModal()` / `closeAuthModal()`; change the `auth-toggle-btn` handler to open the modal (only when not authenticated) instead of toggling `#auth-panel` inline; wire a close/backdrop-click to `closeAuthModal()`.
+
+4. **Hide form when logged in**
+   - `main.ts` `updateAuthUI()`: when `authenticated` → hide the "Sign in" button and call `closeAuthModal()`; show the user label + "Sign out" button. When not authenticated → show "Sign in" and hide "Sign out".
+
+5. **No duplicate messages**
+   - `main.ts`: add `clearMessages()` (empties `#messages`) and call it at the top of `connectWebSocket()` so each (re)connect renders history fresh instead of appending.
+   - Fix the initial double-connect: make the initial `connectWebSocket("main")` wait for `refreshUserSession()` (or connect once with the resolved username) so history isn't pushed twice on load.

+# TODO
+
+> Completed tasks moved to [DONE](./DONE.md). Remaining tasks in [BACKLOG](./BACKLOG.md).
+
+## Playout / R2 manifest–segment layout mismatch
+
+**Chosen approach: candidate (a)** — rewrite the live manifest so its media URIs point into the current run-scoped folder before the atomic R2 publish. Go change in `backend/playout/src/playlist.go`. The `linearvoid-media` Worker stays a faithful path→R2 mapper (no serve-time rewrite).
+
+### Remaining — Validation
+
+- [ ] Run playout (local or test lab), then:
+  - `curl https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8` → 200, short TTL.
+  - Every URI in the manifest resolves `200` with `Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable` (via the `linearvoid-media` Worker).
+  - Confirm manifest refresh + `CF-Cache-Status` progression and no 404 on segment fetch across a run loop.
+- [ ] Verify slate fallback still serves correctly after the rewrite change.
+
+> Implementation (candidate a), Go unit tests, and documentation are complete — see [DONE.md](./DONE.md).
+
+## Frontend Tests
+
+### User Frontend
+
+- [ ] Test coverage for all critical frontend components and interactions
+- [ ] Add code coverage reporting and enforce minimum coverage threshold in CI/CD pipeline
+- [ ] Document test cases and expected outcomes
+
+### Admin Frontend
+
+- [ ] Test coverage for all critical admin UI components and interactions
+- [ ] Add code coverage reporting and enforce minimum coverage threshold in CI/CD pipeline
+- [ ] Document test cases and expected outcomes
+
+## Backend Integration Tests
+
+### Cloudflare R2
+
+- [ ] Test retrieval of segments and manifests from R2 via Cloudflare edge
+- [ ] Validate cache hit/miss behavior and performance metrics
+- [ ] Validate edge cache hit/miss behavior with repeat requests — script `scripts/validate-edge-cache.sh` created

-## [1.0.5] - 2026-08-05
+## [1.1.0] - 2026-09-03
+
+### Added
+
+- **Cloudflare media edge worker (`linearvoid-media`)**: new self-contained project under `infrastructure/cloudflare/` — an R2-bound Worker owning `media.linearvoid.tv` that enforces immutable segment caching (`public, max-age=31536000, immutable`) and short-TTL live `.m3u8`, with HLS CORS/OPTIONS, byte-Range, and a `/health` probe. Includes Vitest unit tests + Miniflare/workerd R2 integration tests and production deploy via `.gitea/workflows/workers-media-deploy.yml`. Replaces the ad-hoc `worker.js`.
+- **Bash script ports**: Linux/macOS equivalents of the Windows ops/load-test scripts (`cache-hit-ratio`, `check-env`, `check-tokens`, loadtest run/summarize); `.ps1` files retained.
+- **Transient presence flash**: join/leave events show as a 3-second `#chat-flash` instead of permanent chat rows.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Cloudflare Workers hosting**: frontend moved from Cloudflare Pages to the `linearvoid-frontend` static-assets Worker; docs now describe `linearvoid-frontend` (SPA) and `linearvoid-media` (edge HLS), correcting stale `worker.js` and R2 custom-domain wording.
+- **Docs de-Windows'd & condensed**: bash-first guides for `SETUP`, `DEPLOYMENT`, `API`, `MONITORING`, `STREAMING`, `COOLIFY`, incident runbook, scaling playbook, architecture README, and Prometheus metrics inventory.
+- **Compose port de-collision**: playout on host port `8081`, nginx moved to `8082` (`NGINX_PORT` default updated) to avoid Coolify-reserved ports.
+- **Playout**: R2 retention now by run count + byte cap (`R2_KEEP_RUNS` default 2, `R2_MAX_RETENTION_BYTES` default 10 GiB, new gauges) replacing the 24h time-based cleanup; default `HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION` 2s / `HLS_WINDOW_SIZE` 12; deduplicated, concurrent startup validation.
+- **Chat/UX**: 5s reconnect grace window (no join/leave spam); `system` messages no longer persisted; smaller `.message-text`; sidebar cleanup (removed DM search + Users toggle, login/register now a modal).
+- **Auth**: viewer session cookie uses `SameSite=None; Secure` over HTTPS (cross-site SPA) and `Lax` over plain HTTP.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Run-scoped R2 manifest URIs (playout)**: `publishManifest` now rewrites bare relative media URIs to the current run folder (`r-{runID}/…`) via `rewriteManifestToRun` before the atomic `.tmp` → `CopyObject` publish, so the live `hls/playlist.m3u8` references resolve against the run-scoped segment keys on `media.linearvoid.tv`. Skipped in slate mode. (Live validation pending — see `TODO.md`.)
+- **Cross-origin auth**: login/register API calls now prefix `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL` so the Workers-served SPA reaches the app origin.
+- **Duplicate chat history**: `connectWebSocket` clears messages on each (re)connect and the initial connect waits for session resolution.
+
+### Tests
+
+- WebSocket (`TestHub_Broadcast_SystemNotPersisted`, `TestHub_ReconnectGracePeriod`), handlers (`TestHandleAdminChatLog_ExcludesSystem`), frontend presence flash.
+- Playout: `TestCleanupOldRuns(_SizeCap)`, `TestR2KeepRuns`, `TestR2MaxRetentionBytes`, `TestR2RunFromKey`, `TestValidateWorkersConfig`, `TestValidatePlaylist_Dedup`.
+- Playout (run-scoped manifest rewrite): `TestRewriteManifestToRun`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_AlreadyPrefixedUnchanged`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_HandlesTSAndComments`, `TestRewriteManifestToRun_EmptyRunID`, `TestIsMediaURI`, `TestPublishManifest_RewritesToRunScopedURIs`, `TestPublishManifest_SlateNotRewritten`.
+- Cloudflare media worker: Vitest unit (`cacheControlForPath`, `contentTypeForPath`, `parseByteRange`) + Miniflare R2 integration (immutable segment, short-TTL manifest, Range `206`, `404`, OPTIONS, method guard).
+
+## [1.0.13] - 2026-08-13
+
+### Added
+
+- **Automatic media normalization on upload**: Chat backend auto-transcodes non-conforming uploads. New `media.NormalizeVideo` wraps ffmpeg with the Linear Void profile (H.264/AAC, 30fps, 2s keyframes, yuv420p, 48kHz stereo), re-verifies output with ffprobe, and writes `*.normalized.mp4`. Media records gain `normalizing` / `normalization_failed` statuses; `POST /api/admin/media/{id}/normalize` re-triggers manually. Admin UI shows a "Normalize" action with status polling.
+- **R2 segment retention**: Playout `cleanupOldSegments` deletes `hls/r-*/*` objects older than `R2_SEGMENT_RETENTION_HOURS` (default 24h), run hourly + at startup, never touching the live manifest. Exposes `linearvoid_playout_r2_cleanup_objects_total` metric. `.env.example` adds `R2_SEGMENT_RETENTION_HOURS`.
+- **Playout loop metrics**: `linearvoid_playout_loops_total` (clean completions) and `linearvoid_playout_run_duration_seconds` (last run duration).
+- **Runtime configuration store**: Thread-safe, JSON-persisted runtime config (`HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION`, `HLS_WINDOW_SIZE`, `MATOMO_URL`, `MATOMO_SITE_ID`) with typed getters/setters + validation, editable via `GET/PUT /api/admin/config`. Playout reads the shared `config.json` as env fallback.
+- **Matomo analytics**: Viewer pageview snippet in `index.html` driven by the public `GET /api/matomo` endpoint.
+- **Chat user accounts**: Register/login/logout (`POST /api/auth/register`, `/login`, `/logout`, `GET /api/auth/session`), bcrypt password hashing, `linearvoid_user_session` cookie, and a viewer sign-in UI.
+- **Private DM history & search**: `GET /api/dm/history` (paginated) and `GET /api/dm/search`, with a DM search UI in the viewer.
+- **Chat UI polish**: Typing indicator, user-list toggle, media status badges, and an "Add to playlist" action gated to `ready` media.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Playout seamless looping**: `main()` now only resets HLS output when the playlist changed (SHA-256 `playlistRevision`), on crash/slate recovery, or first run; otherwise it continues segment numbering via `-start_number` and prunes stale segments. Eliminates the viewer gap on clean playlist loops.
+- **Single playout entrypoint**: `start-playout.sh` now runs `/app/playlist-manager -validate` then `exec`s the Go binary, removing the duplicate shell ffmpeg loop. Added a `-validate` mode to `main()`.
+- **Admin media library**: Shows status badges (`ready`/`needs_normalization`/`normalizing`/`failed`) and only offers "Add to playlist" for `ready` media; playlist entries show per-item status badges.
+- **Prometheus TSDB retention**: The `prometheus` service now sets `--storage.tsdb.retention.time=30d` and `--storage.tsdb.retention.size=15GB` (in both `docker-compose.yml` and `docker-compose.prod.yml`), so metrics older than 30 days are deleted.
+
+### Tests
+
+- Media: `TestNormalizationArgs`, `TestNormalizeVideo_FFmpegError`.
+- Handlers: `TestNormalizeMediaRecord_Success`, `TestNormalizeMediaRecord_Failure`, `TestHandleAdminMediaByID_Normalize`.
+- Playout: `TestCleanupOldSegments`, `TestR2SegmentRetentionHours`, `TestPlaylistFingerprint`, `TestHLSNextStartNumber`, `TestLoadSharedHLSConfig`.
+- Config: `runtime_test.go` (get/set, persist/reload, env fallback, validation).
+- Auth: `TestUserSessionStore`.
+- Handlers: config GET/PUT + validation, DM history/search, user register/login/session.
+
+## [1.0.12] - 2026-08-11
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Task tracking consolidated**: Removed `DEVELOPMENT.md` and moved all development tasks to `.github/instructions/BACKLOG.md` as the single source of truth. `TODO.md` updated to reference `BACKLOG.md` and `DONE.md`.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Playout R2 endpoint validation**: `initR2Client()` now validates all required R2 environment variables (`R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`) before creating the S3 client. Previously, an empty `R2_ENDPOINT` caused cryptic `Custom endpoint '' was not a valid URI` errors on every segment upload attempt. Playout now gracefully degrades when R2 is not configured — local HLS via nginx continues to work.
+- **CD workflow missing R2 secrets**: `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml` "Prepare environment" step now injects all R2\_ variables (`R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`, `R2_ENDPOINT`, plus admin variants) from Gitea secrets. Previously the generated `.env` was missing R2 entirely, causing the playout container to start with an empty endpoint.
+- **Deployment docs**: `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md` now includes explicit R2 and Cloudflare variable lists plus a "Gitea Secrets" table documenting all 15 required secrets.
+
+## [1.0.11] - 2026-08-10
+
+### Added
+
+- **Phase 1 test fixtures**: Media and playlist test fixtures in `backend/playout/testdata/` with ffmpeg generation commands documented in test headers.
+- **Phase 4 R2 integration**: `SyncToR2` now sets `CacheControl` + `ContentType` based on file extension (immutable segments, short-lived manifests). Three integration tests added.
+- **Phase 2 viewer tests**: Presence updates (join/leave/sorted), private DM flow, message rendering (system/self/other) in `main.test.ts` (27 total tests).
+- **Phase 3 admin tests**: Playlist management (save via PUT, error handling, sortable rendering) in `admin.test.ts` (31 total tests passing).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Exported `savePlaylist` and `renderPlaylistSortable` from `admin.ts` for testing.
+
+## [1.0.10] - 2026-08-09
+
+### Added
+
+- **WebSocket summary helper**: Added `scripts/loadtest/summarize-artillery.ps1` to extract counters, rates, and available percentile stats from Artillery JSON output.
+- **Playbook worksheet mapping**: Added artifact-to-worksheet mapping section in `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` for WebSocket and Admin API benchmark artifacts.
+- **Test fixture generation docs**: Added ffmpeg commands for generating valid and invalid media fixtures as comments in `backend/playout/src/playlist_test.go`. Phase 1 test fixtures now complete.
+- **R2 cache header support**: `SyncToR2` now sets `CacheControl` and `ContentType` based on file extension:
+  - `.m4s`/`.ts`/`.mp4`/`.m4a` → immutable (max-age=31536000)
+  - `.m3u8` → short-lived (max-age=2s)
+  - unknown → no cache headers
+- **R2 integration tests**: Added `TestSyncToR2_ManifestCacheHeaders` and `TestSyncToR2_NoCacheHeadersForUnknownExt` verifying cache header behavior for segment, manifest, and unknown file types.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Loadtest runner**: `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.ps1` now generates `ws-chat-summary.txt` automatically for `ws` and `all` scenarios.
+- **Loadtest docs**: `scripts/loadtest/README.md` now documents `summarize-artillery.ps1` usage and the new `ws-chat-summary.txt` artifact.
+- **Planning status wording**: Updated `docs/DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` to mark ws/admin benchmark scaffolding complete while benchmark execution remains pending.
+- **Phase 1 complete**: Test fixture creation and ffmpeg documentation marked done.
+- **Phase 4 partially complete**: R2 upload + cache header validation done; edge cache hit/miss validation remains manual.
+- **Phase 2 frontend tests**: Added presence updates (join/leave rendering), private DM flow, and message rendering tests in `main.test.ts` (27 total tests passing).
+- **Phase 3 admin frontend tests**: Added playlist management tests (save via PUT, error handling, sortable rendering) in `admin.test.ts` (31 total tests passing).
+
+## [1.0.9] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Added
+
+- **Prometheus alerts mount**: `alerts.yml` mounted into prometheus container in both dev and prod compose files.
+- **Grafana provisioning**: Prometheus datasource + dashboard provider YAML configs in `monitoring/grafana/`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Prod prometheus**: Switched from empty named volume to bind mounts for config files (consistent with dev).
+- **CD pipeline**: Trigger on `push` (parallel with CI), removed `environment: production` (was causing silent abort).
+- **CI pipeline**: Removed redundant `release` job (handled by `release.yml`).
+- **Tag format**: Standardized on `*.*.*` (e.g. `1.0.9`), removed `v` prefix from existing tags.
+- **DEPLOYMENT.md**: Documented parallel CI/CD pipeline flow with workflow table.
+- **Runtime checks**: Executed normalization edge-case tests (MOV, MKV, VFR, 5.1 input) and concat continuity verification in running playout environment.
+- **Incident runbook**: Added quarterly disaster recovery drill procedure with prerequisites, outage simulation, restore validation, and evidence template.
+- **Manual ops checklist**: Added `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md` to execute and record Cloudflare + UptimeRobot dashboard tasks with evidence capture.
+- **Scaling playbook**: Added `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` with benchmark methods, trigger thresholds, and Phase 2/3 scaling decision flow.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Prometheus config mount**: Switched prod from bind mounts to named volume `prometheus-config`, populated via `docker run` on remote host. Fixes `not a directory` error when bind source path doesn't exist on deployment host.
+- **Viewer mobile overflow**: Replaced `100vw` with `100%` on full-screen viewer containers to remove horizontal overflow on mobile viewports.
+
+### Removed
+
+- `.github/MEMORY.md`, `.github/agents/`, `.github/instructions/` — tracking files migrated out of repo.
+
+## [1.0.8] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Changed
+
+- **API.md**: Added full HTTP status code matrix (table with 12 codes) and rate limit headers documentation.
+- **DEPLOYMENT.md**: Added troubleshooting table (8 common symptoms with check/fix).
+- **MONITORING.md**: Full rewrite with architecture diagram, 7 scrape targets, 8 alert rules, key metrics, troubleshooting.
+- **SECURITY.md**: Full rewrite with threat model diagram, TLS/HSTS config, network isolation, secrets management, incident response.
+- **Architecture docs**: Filled Level 2 building blocks (Mermaid diagram, 5 subsystems with code locations) and Level 3 module breakdowns (chat: 9 modules, playout: 6 modules, frontend: 10 modules).
+
+## [1.0.7] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Added
+
+- **Emergency slate fallback**: `scripts/generate-slate.sh` creates "We'll Be Right Back" slate video + pre-rendered HLS. Playout detects FFmpeg failures (>5 restarts/60s) and auto-switches to slate manifest. Health endpoint reports `degraded` mode. Auto-recovers when FFmpeg restarts successfully.
+- **Prometheus metrics**: `linearvoid_playout_restarts_total`, `linearvoid_playout_mode` (0=live, 1=slate), `linearvoid_chat_dms_total` exposed on playout + chat `/metrics`.
+- **Video normalization pipeline**: `scripts/normalize.sh` with env-configurable CRF/preset/audio-bitrate wrapping reference FFmpeg command.
+- **Strict ffprobe verification gate**: `ValidateVideo()` in playout parses ffprobe JSON, checks codec (h264/aac), framerate (30/1), resolution (1280x720 or 1920x1080), pix_fmt (yuv420p), sample_rate (48000), keyframe interval (≤2s). `ValidateVideoStrict()` returns `{valid, errors[]}`.
+- **Upload normalization enforcement**: `validateMediaNormalization()` runs on every admin upload (single + chunked). Non-conforming files get `needs_normalization` status. Visible in media library + playlist validation warnings.
+- **Chat history on room join**: `pushChatHistory()` sends last 50 messages via WebSocket on connect.
+- **DM offline delivery**: Private messages persisted to DB, appear in history when recipient reconnects.
+- **Online presence indicators**: Green dot per user in chat sidebar, updated via join/leave system messages.
+- **Schedule metadata overlay**: "Now Playing" + "Up Next" below viewer player, polling `GET /api/schedule` every 30s. Public `/api/schedule` endpoint added.
+- **Playlist drag-to-reorder**: Sortable list with drag-and-drop, per-entry remove buttons, validation warnings (missing files, needs_normalization).
+- **Schedule overrides**: `ScheduleOverride` model + `GET/POST/DELETE /api/admin/schedule/overrides` with conflict detection (409 on overlap). Admin UI with form + list.
+- **User management actions**: `POST /api/admin/users` with mute/unmute/ban/unban actions. Per-user action buttons in admin users table.
+- **Inline moderation**: Mute/Ban buttons on each chat log entry row in admin.
+- **CSV export**: `GET /api/admin/chat-log/export` returns CSV download.
+- **Analytics time range selector**: 1h, 6h, 24h, 7d dropdown on admin analytics page.
+- **Runtime config editor**: `GET/PUT /api/admin/config` for rate limit max + window. Admin system page with config form + restart buttons.
+- **Production target documentation**: `DEPLOYMENT.md` updated with two-environment model (test lab 192.168.88.0/24 vs Hetzner production TBD), CX22 specs, firewall requirements, DNS cutover plan.
+- **Network diagram**: Mermaid diagram in `SETUP.md` distinguishing test lab from planned production.
+- **E2E test script**: `scripts/test-playout-e2e.sh` for runtime validation in test lab.
+- **Redis pub/sub stub**: Architecture ready for multi-instance chat (pending implementation).
+
+### Changed
+
+- `docker-compose.yml` + `.prod.yml`: added slate volume mount (`./data/slate:/app/slate:ro`), Redis `--maxmemory 256mb --maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru`.
+- `backend/playout/Dockerfile`: added `/app/slate` directory.
+- `handleConnection`: added 30s presence heartbeat + WebSocket ping, banned/muted user checks, env-configurable rate limits (`CHAT_RATE_LIMIT_MAX`, `CHAT_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_S`).
+- `handleModerationCommand`: added moderator role check, mute duration parsing, Redis key enforcement.
+- `handlePrivateDM`: targeted delivery via `clientMeta` map instead of broadcast.
+- `initRedis`: added `redisReconnectLoop` with exponential backoff (2s→60s).
+- `handleAdminMedia` + chunked upload: normalization validation runs on every upload, sets `needs_normalization` status.
+- nginx: OPTIONS preflight → 204 on all 4 HLS locations. `/health` returns JSON. `/nginx-status` with stub_status (internal-network restricted).
+- CD workflow: health checks now IP-agnostic (`docker exec` instead of hardcoded IP curls).
+- `docker-compose.yml` + `.prod.yml`, `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml`, `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `SETUP.md`, `docs/architecture/README.md`, `README.md`: all annotated with test-lab vs production distinction, `192.168.88.0/24` flagged as internal test network.
+- `docs/architecture/README.md`: CI/CD deployment view updated to note test lab target, production pending.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- CD health check no longer hardcodes `192.168.88.40` in curl targets — uses `docker exec` for portability.
+- Playlist page no longer single-textarea — now shows sortable list with validation warnings.
+- Schedule page shows overrides alongside playlist timeline.

+## Versioning and Releases
+
+### Version Scheme
+
+Linear Void follows **Semantic Versioning** ([SemVer](https://semver.org)): `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`.
+
+- **MAJOR** — breaking changes to the viewer, API, or deployment model.
+- **MINOR** — new features (endpoints, admin tabs, UI capabilities) that are backward-compatible.
+- **PATCH** — bug fixes, optimizations, documentation polish.
+
+Git tags use no prefix: `1.0.2`, `1.1.0`, `2.0.0`.
+
+### Where Versions Are Declared
+
+| File                    | Token         | Example                   |
+| ----------------------- | ------------- | ------------------------- |
+| `frontend/package.json` | `"version"`   | `"1.0.2"`                 |
+| `CHANGELOG.md`          | `## [X.Y.Z]`  | `## [1.0.2] - 2026-08-05` |

+| Push to `main`         | `ci.yml` → `cd.yml` | CI builds + pushes images with `main`/`latest` tags, CD deploys to production                                      |
+
+### Full Release Procedure
+
+#### Step 1: Bump version numbers
+
+Update these files to the new version (replace `X.Y.Z`):
+
+- [frontend/package.json](frontend/package.json)
+- [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) — add new section at top
+- [README.md](README.md) — version badge
+
+```bash
+# frontend/package.json
+"version": "X.Y.Z"
+
+# CHANGELOG.md — add new section at top
+## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
+
+# README.md — version badge
+version-X.Y.Z-blue
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Write changelog
+
+Add entries under `## [X.Y.Z]` in `CHANGELOG.md` following [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com) format (`Added`, `Changed`, `Fixed`, `Removed`).
+
+#### Step 3: Commit and tag
+
+```bash
+# Stage all version bumps + changelog
+git add frontend/package.json CHANGELOG.md README.md
+
+# Commit
+git commit -m "chore: bump version to X.Y.Z"
+
+# Create annotated tag
+git tag -a X.Y.Z -m "Release X.Y.Z"
+
+# Push commit and tag
+git push origin main
+git push origin X.Y.Z
+```
+
+#### Step 4: Verify CI/CD
+
+- CI workflow (`ci.yml`) runs on push to `main` → builds & pushes `main`/`latest` images.
+- Release workflow (`release.yml`) triggers on `X.Y.Z` tag → builds images with semver tags (`X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest`), creates Gitea Release.
+- CD workflow (`cd.yml`) triggers after CI completes → deploys to production.
+
+Monitor at: [git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions)
+
+#### Step 5: Verify release
+
+Check the Gitea Releases page for the new tag:
+[git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases)
+
+### Manual Release (workflow_dispatch)
+
+If a tag push fails or a re-release is needed:
+
+1. Go to [Actions → Release workflow](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions?workflow=release.yml)
+2. Click "Run workflow"
+3. Enter version (e.g. `1.0.2`)
+4. The workflow builds images, pushes semver tags, and creates the Gitea Release
+
+### Docker Image Tags
+
+Every release produces these tags in the Gitea Container Registry:
+
+| Image     | Tags                     |
+| --------- | ------------------------ |
+| `playout` | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+| `chat`    | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+| `nginx`   | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+
+Example for `1.0.2`:
+
+```text
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:1.0.2
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:1.0
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:latest
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:1.0.2
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:1.0
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:latest
+```
+
+### Moving Completed Tasks
+
+After release, update `CHANGELOG.md` if needed.
+

-# Production Deployment Guide
-
-This guide describes a production-style deployment for Linear Void using Docker Compose, Gitea registry images, and Cloudflare fronting.
-
-## Target Topology
-
-- Host: Linux server with Docker Engine
-- Reverse proxy: nginx container (linearvoid-nginx)
-- Core services: playout, chat, redis, postgres
-- Observability: prometheus, grafana
-- CDN/edge: Cloudflare
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Docker Engine + Docker Compose plugin
-- Network access to git.allucanget.biz
-- A valid .env file with production values
-- DNS configured for linearvoid.tv (and media.linearvoid.tv if split media domain is used)
-
-## Environment File
-
-Use .env with at least:
-
-- CI_REGISTRY_URL
-- CI_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE
-- CHAT_PORT
-- NGINX_PORT
-- DATABASE_URL (if overridden)
-- REDIS_URL (if overridden)
-- ADMIN_USERNAME
-- ADMIN_PASSWORD
-- VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL
-- VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL
-- VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL
-- Cloudflare/R2 variables when media sync is enabled
-
-See .env.example and SETUP.md for full variable reference.
-
-## Pull-and-Run Deployment
-
-From repository root:
-
-```bash
-docker login git.allucanget.biz
-
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --remove-orphans
-```
-
-## First-Time or Recovery Provisioning
-
-1. Ensure host paths exist:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/chat data/playlist data/media data/hls
-```
-
-1. Confirm volumes and networks:
-
-```bash
-docker volume ls
-docker network ls
-```
-
-1. Start stack:
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
-```
-
-## Health Verification
-
-After startup, check service status:
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps
-```
-
-Endpoint checks:
-
-- App: <http://{host}:8080/>
-- Nginx health: <http://{host}:8080/health>
-- Chat health: <http://{host}:3000/health>
-- Playout health: <http://{host}:8081/health>
-- Prometheus: <http://{host}:9090>
-- Grafana: <http://{host}:3001>
-
-Domain checks:
-
-- <https://linearvoid.tv>
-- <https://linearvoid.tv/admin>
-- <https://linearvoid.tv/metrics>
-
-## Zero/Low-Downtime Update Pattern
-
-1. Pull newest images.
-1. Recreate changed services only:
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
-
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
-```
-
-1. Re-run health checks.
-
-## Rollback
-
-If new images are unhealthy:
-
-1. Pin previous tags in docker-compose.prod.yml.
-2. Pull pinned tags.
-3. Restart impacted services.
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
-
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
-```
-
-## Operational Tasks
-
-### View logs
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f nginx chat playout
-```
-
-### Restart one service
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml restart chat
-```
-
-### Stop stack
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
-```
-
-### Keep volumes (recommended) vs remove volumes (destructive)
-
-```bash
-# keep data
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
-
-# destructive (remove data)
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down -v
-```
-
-## Nginx and Proxy Considerations
-
-- If an external proxy (for example Nginx Proxy Manager) fronts the stack, align request body limits with internal nginx.
-- For resumable admin uploads, ensure client_max_body_size supports chunk requests in both proxy layers.
-
-## Security Baseline
-
-- Use strong ADMIN_PASSWORD and rotate regularly.
-- Keep Docker host access restricted.
-- Prefer HTTPS/WSS through Cloudflare.
-- Restrict exposed ports if only proxy access is needed.
-
-## Common Deployment Pitfalls
-
-- Missing frontend build artifacts in local-only compose workflows.
-- Wrong registry credentials or missing login.
-- Misaligned domain env vars (app/ws/hls) causing mixed-origin errors.
-- Proxy-layer body size limits returning 413 on upload.
-- Health checks failing before service warmup is complete.

-# Monitoring Guide
-
-This guide covers Prometheus and Grafana setup for Linear Void.
-
-## Current Monitoring Components
-
-- Prometheus container: linearvoid-prometheus
-- Grafana container: linearvoid-grafana
-- Metrics target: chat service /metrics
-- Base scrape config: monitoring/prometheus/prometheus.yml
-
-## Prometheus Configuration
-
-Current scrape config:
-
-- Job chat -> chat:3000
-- Job prometheus -> prometheus:9090
-- Global scrape interval: 15s
-
-File:
-
-- monitoring/prometheus/prometheus.yml
-
-## Start Monitoring Stack
-
-With compose stack up:
-
-- Prometheus UI: <http://localhost:9090>
-- Grafana UI: <http://localhost:3001>
-
-Compose services include prometheus and grafana in both docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.prod.yml.
-
-## Grafana Provisioning
-
-Current mount paths:
-
-- Dashboards directory: monitoring/grafana/dashboards
-- Datasources directory: monitoring/grafana/datasources
-
-Notes:
-
-- The dashboards directory includes a Prometheus overview dashboard file.
-- Datasource provisioning can be done with a YAML file in monitoring/grafana/datasources, or by configuring a datasource in Grafana UI.
-
-Example datasource provisioning file (create if needed):
-
-```yaml
-apiVersion: 1
-
-datasources:
-  - name: Prometheus
-    type: prometheus
-    access: proxy
-  url: http://prometheus:9090
-    isDefault: true
-```
-
-## Dashboard References

-
-Recommended baseline alerts:
-
-- Chat target down for 2m
-- Prometheus target down for 2m
-- Redis indicator down for 2m
-- TSDB WAL/compaction failure rate above zero
-- Elevated handler/query latency p99
-
-## Validate Monitoring End-to-End
-
-1. Verify /metrics through nginx:
-
-- <https://linearvoid.tv/metrics>
-
-1. Confirm targets in Prometheus:
-
-- Status -> Targets page in Prometheus UI
-
-1. Confirm dashboard data in Grafana:
-
-- Import or open provisioned dashboards
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### No chat metrics in Prometheus
-
-- Check chat container health and logs.
-- Confirm /metrics is reachable from Prometheus container.
-- Verify scrape target is chat:3000 in prometheus.yml.
-
-### Grafana shows no data
-
-- Ensure datasource points to <http://prometheus:9090>.
-- Confirm Prometheus is healthy.
-- Check dashboard query labels match active jobs.
-
-### High cardinality or query slowness
-
-- Reduce unneeded labels.
-- Limit expensive dashboard panels.
-- Tune retention and query windows.
-
-## Operational Recommendations
-
-- Keep alert thresholds tied to actual user impact.
-- Review dashboards after each release that changes endpoints or metrics names.
-- Periodically test alert routing and incident response flow.

-### Folder Explanations
-
-- **`frontend/`**: The viewer experience — minimal, modern SPA with Tailwind + Alpine.js (or vanilla). Uses `hls.js` for playback and a WebSocket client for chat.
-- **`backend/playout/`**: Core linear engine. FFmpeg consumes a normalized playlist and outputs continuous HLS. Includes normalization validation.
-- **`backend/chat/`**: Independent WebSocket service (Node.js/Socket.io or Go). Handles public rooms, private DMs, presence (Redis), persistence (PostgreSQL/SQLite), rate limiting, and moderation.
-- **`backend/shared/`**: Reusable code (types, utils, video validation).
-- **`infrastructure/`**: Everything needed to deploy and configure the stack (Docker, Nginx, Cloudflare rules, future Terraform).
-- **`scripts/`**: One-off and CI-friendly scripts for video preparation, R2 sync, backups, and playlist management.
-- **`monitoring/`**: Grafana dashboards, Prometheus rules, logging configuration.
-- **`docs/architecture/`**: Complete arc42 documentation + ADRs 001-007 (the single source of truth for all architectural decisions).

-# Security Guide
-
-This document summarizes security controls and best practices for Linear Void.
-
-## Security Model Overview
-
-Security is layered across:
-
-- Cloudflare edge
-- nginx reverse proxy
-- chat/admin backend
-- container and host operations
-
-## Authentication and Sessions
-
-Admin access is session-cookie based.
-
-- Login endpoint: /api/admin/login
-- Session endpoint: /api/admin/session
-- Logout endpoint: /api/admin/logout
-- Cookie: linearvoid_admin_session
-- Cookie flags: HttpOnly, SameSite=Strict, Secure over HTTPS
-- Session expiry enforced server-side
-
-Best practices:
-
-- Set strong ADMIN_USERNAME and ADMIN_PASSWORD values.
-- Rotate admin credentials periodically.
-- Keep ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS aligned with operational policy.
-
-## Transport Security
-
-- Enforce HTTPS for app/admin endpoints.
-- Use WSS for chat WebSocket.
-- Keep Cloudflare TLS mode strict and valid at origin.
-
-## Reverse Proxy Controls
-
-nginx controls include:
-
-- auth_request guard for /admin and /api/admin paths
-- dedicated unauthorized behavior for admin API responses
-- explicit websocket upgrade headers for /ws
-- upload body-size limits for resumable media chunk uploads
-
-Best practices:
-
-- Keep proxy body-size and timeout settings aligned across all proxy layers.
-- Avoid exposing backend service ports publicly unless required.
-
-## Input Validation and Upload Safety
-
-Server-side protections include:
-
-- extension allow-list for media uploads
-- MIME checks
-- file-size ceiling (2GB)
-- resumable chunk bounds and chunk-index validation
-- media path safety checks on delete
-
-Best practices:
-
-- Keep upload chunk size bounded.
-- Reject unsupported content types consistently.
-- Monitor 4xx/5xx rates on upload routes.
-
-## Rate Limiting and Abuse Controls
-
-- Chat rate limiting uses Redis INCR + EXPIRE windows.
-- Current baseline: more than 10 messages in 10 seconds is throttled.
-- Moderation actions are logged for auditability.
-
-Best practices:
-
-- Tune thresholds by observed abuse patterns.
-- Keep moderation logs reviewed and retained per policy.
-
-## Infrastructure and Secrets
-
-- Store secrets in .env (not in committed source).
-- Use Gitea Actions secrets for CI/CD credentials and admin credentials.
-- Restrict Docker host control plane exposure.
-- Limit who can read deployment environment files.
-
-## Cloudflare and Edge Security
-
-Recommended baseline:
-
-- WAF enabled
-- Rate limits on sensitive paths
-- Bot protection where appropriate
-- Cache rules scoped carefully to avoid caching private/control-plane content
-
-## Data Protection and Retention
-
-- Persistent data: postgres, redis append-only, chat state, playlist/media metadata
-- Backup and restore drills should be periodic
-- Restore procedures should be tested in isolated environments
-
-## Logging and Monitoring for Security
-
-Track and alert on:
-
-- repeated failed admin login attempts
-- spikes in 401 and 403 responses
-- sudden upload errors (413/400/500 patterns)
-- unusual websocket disconnect or message-rate anomalies
-
-## Hardening Checklist
-
-- [ ] HTTPS/WSS enforced end-to-end
-- [ ] Strong admin credentials configured
-- [ ] Secrets only in env/secrets stores
-- [ ] Proxy auth and websocket headers validated
-- [ ] Upload limits and validation active
-- [ ] Rate limiting active and tested
-- [ ] Cloudflare WAF/rate-limit rules active
-- [ ] Backup/restore drills completed
-- [ ] Security-related monitoring alerts routed
-
-## Incident Response Baseline
-
-1. Detect issue (alerts/logs/user reports).
-2. Triage scope (edge, proxy, app, data plane).
-3. Contain impact (rate limit, credential rotate, route disable).
-4. Recover services and verify health.
-5. Record timeline and corrective actions.

-# Linear Void Setup Guide
-
-This guide covers prerequisites, environment setup, running the application locally and in production, and troubleshooting. It references the [architecture documentation](./docs/architecture/README.md)(`docs/architecture/README.md`).
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- **Docker & Docker Compose**: Required for running the full stack (playout, chat, nginx, redis, db, prometheus, grafana). Install from [docker.com](https://www.docker.com).
-- **Node.js 20+**: Required for frontend development and production builds (`cd frontend && npm install && npm run build`).
-- **npm**: Installed with Node.js and used for the frontend dependency installation and Vite workflow.
-- **Go 1.23+**: Recommended when working on the Go services outside Docker (`backend/chat`, `backend/playout`).
-- **FFmpeg**: Used by the playout service for HLS generation. Install via `apt install ffmpeg` (Linux), Homebrew (macOS), or Winget (Windows).
-- **Git**: For cloning and version control.
-- **Cloudflare Account**: For R2 storage and CDN (free tier sufficient for most use cases).
-- **Gitea Account**: Required if you want to push images to the self-hosted registry or use the repository's CI/CD flow.
-  - Set up the required Actions secrets in Gitea at: [https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/settings/actions/secrets](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/settings/actions/secrets)
-  - Add the following secrets:
-    - `CI_REGISTRY_USER`: Your Gitea username (e.g., `zwitschi`)
-    - `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`: A Gitea Personal Access Token with `write:packages` scope
-    - `ADMIN_USERNAME`: The administrator username for the production admin panel (e.g., `admin`)
-    - `ADMIN_PASSWORD`: A strong password for the production admin panel
-    - `DATABASE_URL`: The production database connection string (e.g., `postgres://linearvoid:<password>@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable`)
-- **Hetzner Cloud Account** (optional for production): For the US-East VPS (Ashburn, VA recommended per ADR-001).
-
-## Development Prerequisites
-
-- **Frontend dependencies**: Run `cd frontend && npm install` before `npm run dev` or `npm run build`.
-- **Docker build support**: Local development expects Docker to be able to build the `chat`, `playout`, and `nginx` images referenced in `docker-compose.yml`.
-- **Data directories**: Create `data/playlist`, `data/media`, `data/hls`, and `data/chat` before the first run so bind mounts resolve cleanly.
-- **Database choice**: The stack defaults to PostgreSQL in `docker-compose.yml`. If you want SQLite for local-only development, update `DATABASE_URL` in `.env` accordingly.
-- **Redis availability**: Chat presence, rate limiting, and pub/sub require Redis. The compose stack provides it automatically.
-- **Video inputs**: Source videos should be normalized before playout. If the playlist contains invalid files, the playout container will fail its validation flow.
-
-## Environment Setup
-
-1. **Clone the Repository** (if not already done):
-
-   ```bash
-   git clone https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid.git
-   cd linearvoid
-   ```
-
-2. **Copy Environment File**:
-
-   ```bash
-   cp .env.example .env
-   ```
-
-3. **Configure `.env`** (edit with your values):
-
-   ```env
-   # Cloudflare R2 (required for video storage and $0 egress)
-   R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-r2-access-key
-   R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-r2-secret-key
-   R2_BUCKET_NAME=linearvoid-media
-   R2_ENDPOINT=https://your-account-id.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
-   R2_REGION=auto
-
-   # Cloudflare (for custom domain and cache rules)
-   CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=your-cloudflare-api-token
-   CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=your-account-id
-   MEDIA_DOMAIN=media.linearvoid.tv
-
-   # Public frontend URLs
-   # Preferred local setup uses the real public domains through Cloudflare and Nginx Proxy Manager.
-   VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://linearvoid.tv
-   VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL=wss://linearvoid.tv/ws
-   VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8
-   VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_MODERATOR=admin
-   VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_ROOM=main
-   VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_MODERATION_LOG_LIMIT=50
-   ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
-   ADMIN_PASSWORD=change-me
-   ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS=12
-   # Optional direct-local fallback when bypassing the public proxy:
-   # VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL=http://localhost
-   # VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL=ws://localhost/ws
-   # VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=http://localhost/hls/playlist.m3u8
-
-   # Gitea Container Registry (for self-hosted Docker images)
-   CI_REGISTRY_URL=git.allucanget.biz
-   CI_REGISTRY_USER=your-gitea-username
-   CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN=your-gitea-token
-   CI_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE=zwitschi/linearvoid
-   # Gitea API access (optional, for CI/release automation)
-   CI_SERVER_URL=https://git.allucanget.biz
-
-   # Chat / Database
-   DATABASE_URL=postgres://linearvoid:linearvoid@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable
-   # or for SQLite-only local development:
-   # DATABASE_URL=sqlite://./data/chat.db
-   REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0
-
-   # Ports (for local development)
-   PLAYOUT_PORT=8080
-   CHAT_PORT=3000
-   NGINX_PORT=80
-
-   # Playout Configuration
-   PLAYLIST_PATH=/app/playlist.txt
-   HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION=6
-   HLS_WINDOW_SIZE=24
-
-   # Logging / Monitoring
-   LOG_LEVEL=info
-   PROMETHEUS_PORT=9090
-   GRAFANA_PORT=3001
-
-   # Development flags
-   NODE_ENV=development
-   GO_ENV=development
-   ```
-
-4. **Check local value overrides for Docker Compose**:
-   - `docker-compose.yml` builds images locally and maps the frontend build output from `frontend/dist` into nginx.
-   - `docker-compose.prod.yml` pulls prebuilt images from the Gitea registry.
-   - Internal container-to-container URLs should use compose hostnames, for example `REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0` and `DATABASE_URL=postgres://linearvoid:<password>@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable`.
-   - For production public routing, set `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://linearvoid.tv`, `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL=wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`, and `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
-
-5. **Create Data Directories**:
-
-   ```bash
-   mkdir -p data/playlist data/media data/hls data/chat
-   ```
-
-6. **Prepare Sample Videos** (optional):
-   - Place normalized MP4 files in `data/media/`.
-   - Create a `data/playlist/playlist.txt` with paths (see ADR-001 for normalization requirements).
-
-## Cloudflare R2 Setup
-
-1. **Create an R2 bucket**:
-   - Create a bucket such as `linearvoid-media` in Cloudflare R2.
-   - Keep the bucket name aligned with `R2_BUCKET_NAME` in `.env`.
-
-2. **Generate R2 API credentials**:
-   - Create an access key pair with read/write permissions for the bucket.
-   - Set `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, and `R2_REGION=auto` in `.env`.
-
-3. **Find the S3 endpoint**:
-   - Use the account-scoped endpoint format `https://<account-id>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com`.
-   - Store the account ID in both `R2_ENDPOINT` and `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID` where applicable.
-
-4. **Bind a custom media domain**:
-   - Attach a domain such as `media.linearvoid.tv` to the bucket.
-   - Set `MEDIA_DOMAIN` to that hostname.
-
-5. **Configure app-domain DNS and TLS**:
-   - Point `linearvoid.tv` to the public entrypoint serving nginx.
-   - Point `www.linearvoid.tv` to the same target and redirect it to `https://linearvoid.tv`.
-   - Keep `media.linearvoid.tv` on the R2 custom domain path so HLS delivery stays split from the app origin.
-   - Use Cloudflare proxied DNS with Full (strict) TLS so browser traffic uses `https://linearvoid.tv`, `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`, and `https://media.linearvoid.tv`.
-
-6. **Apply cache behavior**:
-   - Configure the `.ts` and `.m3u8` cache rules from `infrastructure/cloudflare/cache-rules.md`.
-   - Enable Smart Tiered Cache for the R2-backed hostname.
-   - If you need header normalization for immutable segment caching, deploy `infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js` to the same zone.
-
-7. **Verify access**:
-   - Confirm uploads with an S3-compatible client such as `aws s3 ls --endpoint-url <R2_ENDPOINT>`.
-   - After deployment, check Cloudflare analytics for cache hit ratio and origin request volume.
-
-## Gitea Setup
-
-1. **Create or verify a Gitea user**:
-   - The user should have access to the repository and permission to read from the container registry.
-
-2. **Create an access token**:
-   - Generate a token with the scopes needed for package/registry access and, if applicable, repository automation.
-   - Store it as `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN` in `.env`.
-
-3. **Configure Gitea Actions Secrets**:
-   - Go to the repository settings page: [https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/settings/actions/secrets](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/settings/actions/secrets)
-   - Add the following secrets to enable automated CI/CD and production deployment:
-     - `CI_REGISTRY_USER`: Your Gitea username (e.g., `zwitschi`).
-     - `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`: Your Gitea Personal Access Token with `write:packages` scope.
-     - `ADMIN_USERNAME`: The administrator username for the production admin panel (e.g., `admin`).
-     - `ADMIN_PASSWORD`: A strong password for the production admin panel.
-     - `DATABASE_URL`: The production database connection string (e.g., `postgres://linearvoid:<password>@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable`).
-
-4. **Configure registry variables**:
-   - Set `CI_REGISTRY_URL` to the Gitea host.
-   - Set `CI_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE` to the image namespace, for example `zwitschi/linearvoid`.
-   - Set `CI_REGISTRY_USER` to the account that will push or pull images.
-
-5. **Authenticate Docker to the registry**:
-
-   ```bash
-   docker login git.allucanget.biz
-   ```
-
-6. **Build and publish images when needed**:
-   - Local development uses `docker-compose.yml`, which builds from source.
-   - Production uses `docker-compose.prod.yml`, which expects the `playout`, `chat`, and `nginx` images to exist in the configured Gitea registry namespace.
-
-7. **Validate image availability**:
-   - Before a production rollout, verify that the expected `:latest` tags can be pulled from the registry on the target server.
-
-## Running the Application
-
-### Local Development
-
-1. **Start All Services**:
-
-   ```bash
-   docker compose up --build
-   ```
-
-2. **Access the Application**:
-   - Preferred local access with the documented proxy setup: <https://linearvoid.tv>
-   - Admin Interface: <https://linearvoid.tv/admin> (redirects to `/admin/login/` until authenticated)
-   - Chat WebSocket: `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`
-   - Direct-local fallback when bypassing Cloudflare/Nginx Proxy Manager: <http://localhost>, <http://localhost/admin>, and `ws://localhost/ws`
-   - Health Checks:
-     - Playout: <http://localhost:8081/health>
-     - Chat: <http://localhost:3000/health>
-   - Monitoring:
-     - Prometheus: <http://localhost:9090>
-     - Grafana: <http://localhost:3001> (default login: admin/admin)
-
-3. **Frontend Development** (optional, for UI changes):
-
-   ```bash
-   cd frontend
-   npm install
-   npm run dev
-   ```
-
-   The dev server runs on <http://localhost:5173>. It proxies API calls to the backend services.
-
-4. **Build frontend assets for nginx-backed local runs**:
-
-   ```bash
-   cd frontend
-   npm install
-   npm run build
-   ```
-
-   The local nginx container serves `frontend/dist`, so rebuilding the frontend is required before validating production-like static output.
-
-5. **Stop Services**:
-
-   ```bash
-   docker compose down
-   ```
-
-### Local Test Environment Deployment (Remote Docker Host)
-
-For testing deployments on a local network server without setting up a full production VPS, you can deploy directly to a remote Docker host (e.g., a home lab server or test machine) using Docker's TCP socket.
-
-#### Test Environment Prerequisites
-
-- A remote server running Docker at IP `192.168.88.40` (running Alpine Linux).
-- Docker TCP socket enabled and listening on port `2375` on the remote server.
-
-##### Enabling Docker TCP Socket on Alpine Linux
-
-To allow the Gitea Actions runner (or your local machine) to deploy to the remote Alpine host, you must configure the Docker daemon to listen on the TCP socket:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/conf.d/docker` on the Alpine host:
-
-   ```bash
-   vi /etc/conf.d/docker
-   ```
-
-2. Update the `DOCKER_OPTS` line to include both the unix socket and the TCP socket:
-
-   ```bash
-   DOCKER_OPTS="-H unix:///var/run/docker.sock -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375"
-   ```
-
-3. Restart the Docker service:
-
-   ```bash
-   rc-service docker restart
-   ```
-
-4. Verify that Docker is listening on port `2375`:
-
-   ```bash
-   netstat -tlnp | grep 2375
-   ```
-
-5. Ensure any firewall (like `awall` or `iptables`) on the Alpine host allows incoming traffic on port `2375` from your local network subnet (e.g., `192.168.88.0/24`).
-
-#### Deployment Steps
-
-1. **Configure Docker CLI to use the Remote Host**:
-   You can point your local Docker CLI to the remote server by setting the `DOCKER_HOST` environment variable:
-   - **PowerShell (Windows)**:
-
-     ```powershell
-     $env:DOCKER_HOST="tcp://192.168.88.40:2375"
-     ```
-
-   - **Bash (Linux/macOS)**:
-
-     ```bash
-     export DOCKER_HOST="tcp://192.168.88.40:2375"
-     ```
-
-2. **Verify Connection**:
-   Run `docker info` to confirm your local CLI is communicating with the remote server at `192.168.88.40`:
-
-   ```bash
-   docker info
-   ```
-
-   The output should show the remote server's hostname and system details.
-
-3. **Deploy the Stack**:
-   With `DOCKER_HOST` set, any `docker` or `docker compose` commands you run locally will execute directly on the remote server.
-   - **Deploy from Registry (Production-like)**:
-
-     ```bash
-     docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
-     docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --remove-orphans
-     ```
-
-   - **Build and Deploy from Source**:
-
-     ```bash
-     docker compose up -d --build
-     ```
-
-4. **Access the Test Environment**:
-   - Playout Health: `http://192.168.88.40:8081/health`
-   - Chat Health: `http://192.168.88.40:3000/health`
-   - Nginx Entrypoint: `http://192.168.88.40:8080` (or the port mapped to `NGINX_PORT` in `.env`)
-
-5. **Reset to Local Docker Host**:
-   Once testing is complete, clear the `DOCKER_HOST` variable to point back to your local machine:
-   - **PowerShell**:
-
-     ```powershell
-     Remove-Item env:DOCKER_HOST
-     ```
-
-   - **Bash**:
-
-     ```bash
-     unset DOCKER_HOST
-     ```
-
-### Production Setup Guide
-
-1. **Prepare the target host**:
-   - Provision a Linux VPS with Docker Engine, Docker Compose, Git, and enough disk for media, HLS output, PostgreSQL, Redis persistence, and monitoring data.
-   - Open the ports required for HTTP/HTTPS and any restricted monitoring access you intend to expose.
-
-2. **Clone the repository and create the environment file**:
-
-   ```bash
-   git clone https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid.git
-   cd linearvoid
-   cp .env.example .env
-   ```
-
-3. **Set production-safe `.env` values**:
-   - Replace placeholder secrets.
-   - Use compose-network hostnames for internal services, for example `redis` and `db`.
-   - Set strong values for `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` and `GRAFANA_PASSWORD`.
-   - Keep `MEDIA_DOMAIN`, R2 credentials, and Gitea registry values consistent with the external infrastructure.
-   - Set `MEDIA_DOMAIN=media.linearvoid.tv`.
-   - Set `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://linearvoid.tv`, `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL=wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`, and `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
-   - If you intentionally bypass the public proxy for local-only testing, switch those values to `http://localhost`, `ws://localhost/ws`, and `http://localhost/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
-
-4. **Create runtime directories on the server**:
-
-   ```bash
-   mkdir -p data/playlist data/media data/hls data/chat
-   ```
-
-5. **Publish or verify required images in Gitea**:
-   - Ensure the `playout`, `chat`, and `nginx` images exist under `${CI_REGISTRY_URL}/${CI_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE}`.
-   - Log in to the registry from the VPS before pulling.
-
-6. **Deploy the production stack**:
-
-   ```bash
-   docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
-   docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
-   ```
-
-7. **Run post-deploy verification**:
-   - Check `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps`.
-   - Confirm nginx, chat, and playout health endpoints respond.
-   - Verify that HLS output is being written to `data/hls` and that the media domain serves manifests and segments through Cloudflare.
-
-8. **Harden and operate the deployment**:
-   - Put HTTPS in front of nginx using Cloudflare or another reverse proxy, with `linearvoid.tv` as canonical app host and `www.linearvoid.tv` redirected.
-   - Restrict Grafana and Prometheus exposure to trusted IPs or a private network.
-   - Run the stack under systemd or another service manager if you need auto-start behavior outside Docker restart policies.
-
-### Production Deployment (Hetzner VPS + Cloudflare)
-
-1. **Provision VPS**: Use Hetzner Cloud CX22 in Ashburn, VA (per ADR-001).
-2. **Configure Cloudflare**:
-   - Create R2 bucket with `enam` location hint.
-   - Set up custom media domain (`media.linearvoid.tv`) with the cache rules from `infrastructure/cloudflare/cache-rules.md`.
-   - Point `linearvoid.tv` and `www.linearvoid.tv` at the app entrypoint, then redirect `www` to the apex domain.
-   - Use Full (strict) TLS for both app and media hostnames.
-   - Apply the Worker from `infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js` for advanced header management.
-3. **Deploy**:
-   - Copy the project to the VPS.
-   - Use production compose: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
-   - Or pull from Gitea registry: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull && docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
-   - Configure systemd to manage the Docker Compose stack.
-4. **Monitoring**: Access Grafana at the exposed port for dashboards (included in `monitoring/grafana/dashboard.json`).
-
-See `docs/architecture/README.md` for the full arc42 documentation and the ADRs for architectural decisions.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- **R2 Upload Fails**: Check credentials in `.env` and ensure the bucket exists. Verify with `aws s3 ls --endpoint-url=$R2_ENDPOINT`.
-- **Normalization Errors**: Run `backend/playout/start-playout.sh` manually to see ffprobe output. All videos must be H.264/AAC, 30 fps constant, 2s keyframes (ADR-001).
-- **Chat Not Connecting**: Check Redis connection and WebSocket URL. The health check at `/health` should return 200.
-- **Cache Not Working**: Verify Cloudflare cache rules (`.ts` = long TTL immutable, `.m3u8` = short TTL). Check cache hit ratio in Cloudflare dashboard.
-- **Docker Issues**: Run `docker compose logs` for service-specific errors. Ensure ports are not in use.
-- **Admin Interface**: Ensure `ADMIN_USERNAME`, `ADMIN_PASSWORD`, and `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS` are set. `/admin/` and `/api/admin/*` are protected by a session-based login flow.
-- **Production Pull Fails**: Confirm `docker login` to Gitea succeeded on the server and the image tags referenced by `docker-compose.prod.yml` exist.

+# Coolify Deployment
+
+*Last Updated: 2026-08-28*
+
+Alternative deployment path for Linear Void using [Coolify](https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify/tree/v4.3.14) (v4.3.14), an open-source self-hostable PaaS that manages servers, apps, and databases over SSH. Drop-in alternative to the flows in [SETUP.md](./SETUP.md): local dev (`docker-compose.yml`) and test-lab/prod (`docker-compose.prod.yml` via Gitea Actions CD). Coolify deploys the same Compose stack through a web UI and its own Traefik reverse proxy for automatic HTTPS, domain routing, and one-click redeploys (no manual `DOCKER_HOST`).
+
+## Why Coolify
+
+- **Single control plane**: manage playout, chat, nginx, redis, db (plus exporters/monitoring) from one dashboard.
+- **Automatic TLS**: Let's Encrypt provisioning/renewal per app/domain, replacing the manual Cloudflare + nginx origin TLS setup for the app hostname.
+- **No vendor lock-in**: config lives on your server; containers keep running if you stop using Coolify — you only lose automation.
+- **Simpler cutover**: on Hetzner VPS provisioning, point Coolify at the new server and redeploy instead of editing CD `DOCKER_HOST`.
+
+> Replaces the *deployment orchestration* layer only. Cloudflare DNS, R2 media bucket, cache rules, and the edge Worker from [SETUP.md](./SETUP.md) are unchanged.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Linux server with **Docker Engine** (any supported distro).
+- **SSH access** (root or passwordless `sudo`) from the Coolify install machine — Coolify provisions the target over SSH.
+- **2 GB RAM / 20 GB disk** minimum for Coolify itself (plus resources for the stack).
+- A domain pointed at the server for HTTPS (e.g. `linearvoid.tv`).
+- Ports `80` and `443` reachable for Traefik.
+- Gitea registry credentials (`CI_REGISTRY_USER` / `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`) if pulling prebuilt `playout`, `chat`, `nginx` images.
+
+## Installation
+
+Recommended on a dedicated server:
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://cdn.coollabs.io/coolify/install.sh | bash
+```
+
+The installer boots a Docker-based Coolify instance and prints the URL and default credentials. Complete first-run setup in the dashboard. For non-interactive/offline installs, see the [installation docs](https://coolify.io/docs/installation) and [install script source](https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify/blob/v4.3.14/scripts/install.sh).
+
+## Add the Linear Void server
+
+1. **Servers → Add**.
+2. Choose your provider (or **Localhost** if Coolify runs on the same host as the stack).
+3. Provide SSH details; for a remote host Coolify validates and installs its agent.
+4. Confirm the server shows **Reachable** before creating resources.
+
+### Current topology (verified 2026-08-30)
+
+Active test-lab setup is **two-tier**:
+
+| Component | Host | Exposes | Docker TCP | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Coolify dashboard** | `192.168.88.18` | `https://coolify.allucanget.biz` via Cloudflare tunnel (`coolify-cloudflared`); dashboard at `8000` | No | Manages target servers over SSH |
+| **Deployment target** | `192.168.88.40` | `coolify-proxy` = Traefik on 80/443; port `8000` bound by Portainer, not Coolify | Yes | Per-server helpers (`coolify-proxy`, `coolify-sentinel`, `coolify-cloudflared`) + the stack via `docker-compose.prod.yml` (`linearvoid` compose project, 11 containers) |
+
+The main `coolify` app container runs only on the dashboard host `192.168.88.18`; Compose-resource services land on the target `192.168.88.40`. The dashboard host exposes no Docker TCP socket, so run the checks below against the **target** `192.168.88.40`:
+
+```bash
+./scripts/check-env.sh      # env/deployment health on target (containers, helpers, health)
+./scripts/check-tokens.sh   # Gitea registry, Cloudflare, R2, admin credential access
+```
+
+## Deploy the stack
+
+Deploy as a **Docker Compose** resource (not individual apps):
+
+1. **Projects → Add → Docker Compose**.
+2. Select the target server.
+3. In **Build Settings**, set the compose file source:
+   - **Git Repository** → point at `https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid.git`, compose file `docker-compose.prod.yml` (Coolify pulls on each redeploy).
+   - **Raw Compose** → paste `docker-compose.prod.yml` directly to manage manually.
+4. For the Git source, add the Gitea registry login as a **Deployment Key / environment secret** so `playout`, `chat`, `nginx` images can be pulled. Alternatively switch those services to `build:` blocks (as in `docker-compose.yml`) to build from source on the server.
+
+### Environment variables
+
+Map Linear Void's `.env` values into Coolify's **Environment Variables** tab:
+
+| Variable | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `DATABASE_URL` | `postgres://linearvoid:<password>@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable` |
+| `REDIS_URL` | `redis://redis:6379/0` |
+| `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | DB password (used by `db` service) |
+| `ADMIN_USERNAME` / `ADMIN_PASSWORD` | Admin panel credentials |
+| `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS` | Admin session lifetime |
+| `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` | Cloudflare R2 credentials |
+| `R2_BUCKET_NAME` / `R2_ENDPOINT` / `R2_REGION` | R2 bucket config (`R2_REGION=auto`) |
+| `MEDIA_DOMAIN` | `media.linearvoid.tv` |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL` | `https://linearvoid.tv` |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL` | `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws` |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL` | `https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8` |
+
+Keep internal service URLs on compose hostnames (`redis`, `db`) exactly as in `docker-compose.prod.yml`.
+
+### Persistent storage
+
+Named volumes (`redis-data`, `postgres-data`) and bind mounts under `./data` must be configured under **Persistent Storage** to survive redeploys:
+
+| Mount | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `data/playlist` | Playout playlist file |
+| `data/media` | Normalized source videos (read-only to playout) |
+| `data/hls` | Generated HLS manifests/segments |
+| `data/chat` | Chat service working data |
+| `data/slate` | Slate media |
+| `redis-data` | Redis append-only persistence |
+| `postgres-data` | PostgreSQL data directory |
+
+If Coolify doesn't auto-create the dirs, create them before first deploy:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p data/playlist data/media data/hls data/chat
+```
+
+### Domains and proxy
+
+1. Assign the **nginx** service a public domain (e.g. `linearvoid.tv`); Traefik terminates TLS and forwards to `nginx`.
+2. Set **Ports Exposes** so Traefik targets the nginx port (`80` inside container, mapped from `${NGINX_PORT:-8082}:80`).
+3. Do **not** publicly expose playout (`8081`) or chat (`3000`) health ports — keep them internal and route through nginx.
+4. For `media.linearvoid.tv`, keep serving HLS from the R2 custom domain (per SETUP.md) rather than routing through Coolify, so segments stay on Cloudflare's edge cache.
+
+## Post-deploy verification
+
+- `docker compose ps` on the server shows all services healthy.
+- Playout health: `https://<host>/health` via nginx (internal `:8081/health`).
+- Chat health: internal `:3000/health`.
+- HLS written to `data/hls` and served from `media.linearvoid.tv`.
+- Chat WebSocket connects over `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`.
+- Admin login works at `/admin` with configured credentials.
+
+## Monitoring
+
+Coolify exposes container logs/basic metrics per resource. The stack ships Prometheus + Grafana (`monitoring/`) plus nginx/redis exporters. To reach them via Coolify, expose Grafana on a restricted subdomain (e.g. `grafana.linearvoid.tv`) and keep Prometheus internal, mirroring SETUP.md access guidance.
+
+## Cutover from Gitea CD
+
+1. Deploy the stack as a Coolify compose resource (above).
+2. Point Cloudflare DNS for `linearvoid.tv` / `www` at the server IP (proxied).
+3. Disable (or keep as fallback) the `cd` job in the Gitea workflow so the two orchestrators don't fight over the same `DOCKER_HOST`.
+4. Keep the Gitea **CI** (build + push images) job so Coolify keeps pulling `:latest` from the registry.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Image pull fails**: set Gitea registry credentials in the compose secret store, or switch services to `build:` blocks.
+- **Healthchecks fail**: confirm `curl` exists in the built images (healthchecks rely on it).
+- **TLS errors**: check the domain's DNS points at the Coolify server and ports `80`/`443` are open.
+- **HLS not updating**: verify `data/hls` is writable and playout restarts cleanly; see SETUP.md normalization troubleshooting.
+- **Ports conflict**: Coolify's Traefik binds `80`/`443`; do not also map those to the host in the compose file.

+## Environments
+
+| Environment    | Host                       | Docker Target              | Purpose                                        |
+| -------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
+| **Test Lab**   | `192.168.88.40` (internal) | `tcp://192.168.88.40:2375` | Integration testing, staging, CI/CD validation |
+| **Production** | Hetzner VPS (TBD)          | `tcp://<hetzner-ip>:2375`  | Public linearvoid.tv                           |
+
+**Current state (2026-08-06):** Test lab is active and receives automated CD deploys. Production Hetzner VPS is **not yet provisioned**. `cd.yml` and `docker-compose.prod.yml` target the test lab; switching to production only requires changing `DOCKER_HOST`.
+
+## Production Target (Hetzner)
+
+**Status: Not provisioned.** Plan documented and pipeline ready; only the VPS needs creation.
+
+### Planned Infrastructure
+
+- Provider: Hetzner Cloud, Region: Ashburn, VA (us-east)
+- Instance: CX22 (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 40 GB SSD) or equivalent
+- OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or Debian 12
+- Bandwidth: 20 TB included traffic/month; Estimated cost: ~€7–10/month base
+
+### Cutover Plan
+
+1. Provision Hetzner VPS
+2. Add production secrets to Gitea (`CI_PROD_*` prefix)
+3. Update `DOCKER_HOST` in CD workflow to Hetzner public IP
+4. Trigger deploy → validate health checks
+5. Update Cloudflare A record `linearvoid.tv` → Hetzner IP
+6. Enable HTTPS, WAF, cache rules on production zone
+7. Decommission test lab as public target
+
+### Production Preflight (minimum readiness gate)
+
+1. Verify Hetzner host reachable over SSH and Docker remote API TLS works for the Gitea runner
+2. Confirm all production secrets exist under `CI_PROD_*` prefix
+3. Confirm `linearvoid.tv`, `www.linearvoid.tv`, `media.linearvoid.tv` DNS targets match intended phase
+4. Complete manual Cloudflare/UptimeRobot checklist (see `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md`)
+5. Run production smoke path end-to-end: viewer SPA, HLS playback, chat connect, admin login, upload, playlist save, playout health

+| `ci.yml`             | Push to `main`    | Lint, build frontend, vet Go, build & push images (`:latest`, `:main`)            |
+| `cd.yml`             | Push to `main`    | Deploy to test lab (`192.168.88.40:2375`) — runs **in parallel** with CI          |

+
+CI and CD run simultaneously on every push to `main`. Deploy pulls whatever `:latest` images are available at that moment. `cd.yml` uses `DOCKER_HOST` to target the host:
+
+```bash
+# Test lab (current)
+DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.88.40:2375
+
+# Production (when provisioned)
+DOCKER_HOST=tcp://<hetzner-public-ip>:2375
+```
+
+No pipeline code changes needed to switch targets.
+
+## Target Topology
+
+- Host: Linux server with Docker Engine
+- Reverse proxy: nginx container (linearvoid-nginx)
+- Core services: playout, chat, redis, postgres
+- Observability: prometheus, grafana
+- CDN/edge: Cloudflare
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker Engine + Docker Compose plugin
+- Network access to git.allucanget.biz
+- Valid `.env` file with production values
+- DNS configured for `linearvoid.tv` (and `media.linearvoid.tv` if split media domain used)
+
+## Environment File
+
+`.env` requires at minimum:
+
+- `DATABASE_URL` — PostgreSQL connection string
+- `REDIS_URL` — Redis connection string
+- `ADMIN_USERNAME` / `ADMIN_PASSWORD` — admin dashboard credentials
+- `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS` — session expiry (default 12)
+- `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL` / `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL` / `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL` — frontend URLs
+
+**Cloudflare R2 (required for HLS segment sync to edge):**
+
+- `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
+- `R2_BUCKET_NAME` (e.g. `linearvoid-media`)
+- `R2_ENDPOINT` — S3-compatible endpoint URL
+- `R2_REGION` — set to `auto`
+
+**Cloudflare (optional, for Workers):**
+
+- `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN` / `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`
+- `MEDIA_DOMAIN` — split media domain (e.g. `media.linearvoid.tv`)
+
+See `.env.example` and `SETUP.md` for full variable reference.
+
+### Gitea Secrets
+
+`cd.yml` injects sensitive values from Gitea secrets into `.env` at deploy time. Configure in the Gitea repository:
+
+`DATABASE_URL`, `ADMIN_USERNAME`, `ADMIN_PASSWORD`, `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`, `R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ADMIN_ACCESS_KEY_ID` (optional), `R2_ADMIN_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` (optional), `R2_ADMIN_ENDPOINT` (optional), `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN` (optional), `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID` (optional), `CI_REGISTRY_USER`, `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`
+
+## Pull-and-Run Deployment
+
+Images are built/pushed automatically by CI and release workflows. Every push to `main` triggers CI (`:main`, `:latest`) and CD (deploys `:latest` to test lab) in parallel. Semantic version tags (`*.*.*`, e.g. `1.0.9`) trigger the release workflow (`:X.Y.Z`, `:X.Y`, `:latest` + Gitea Release).
+
+```bash
+docker login git.allucanget.biz
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --remove-orphans
+```
+
+## First-Time or Recovery Provisioning
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p data/chat data/playlist data/media data/hls
+docker volume ls
+docker network ls
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
+```
+
+## Health Verification
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps
+```
+
+Endpoint checks:
+
+- App: `http://{host}:8080/`
+- Nginx health: `http://{host}:8080/health`
+- Chat health: `http://{host}:3000/health`
+- Playout health: `http://{host}:8081/health`
+- Prometheus: `http://{host}:9090`
+- Grafana: `http://{host}:3001`
+
+Domain checks:
+
+- `https://linearvoid.tv`
+- `https://linearvoid.tv/admin`
+- `https://linearvoid.tv/metrics`
+
+## Zero/Low-Downtime Update Pattern
+
+1. Pull newest images.
+2. Recreate changed services only:
+
+   ```bash
+   docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+   docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
+   ```
+
+3. Re-run health checks.
+
+## Rollback
+
+If new images are unhealthy:
+
+1. Pin previous tags in `docker-compose.prod.yml`.
+2. Pull pinned tags.
+3. Restart impacted services:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
+```
+
+## Operational Tasks
+
+```bash
+# View logs
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f nginx chat playout
+
+# Restart one service
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml restart chat
+
+# Stop stack (keep data)
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
+
+# Stop stack — destructive (remove data)
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down -v
+```
+
+## Nginx and Proxy Considerations
+
+- If an external proxy (e.g. Nginx Proxy Manager) fronts the stack, align request body limits with internal nginx (see `infrastructure/nginx/nginx.conf`).
+- For resumable admin uploads, ensure `client_max_body_size` supports chunk requests in both proxy layers.
+
+## Security Baseline
+
+- Use a strong `ADMIN_PASSWORD` and rotate regularly.
+- Keep Docker host access restricted.
+- Prefer HTTPS/WSS through Cloudflare.
+- Restrict exposed ports if only proxy access is needed.
+
+## Common Deployment Pitfalls
+
+- Missing frontend build artifacts in local-only compose workflows.
+- Wrong registry credentials or missing login.
+- Misaligned domain env vars (app/ws/hls) causing mixed-origin errors.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom                    | Check                                         | Fix                                                           |
+| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Service not starting       | `docker logs linearvoid-<svc> --tail 50`      | Check `.env` vars, volume mounts, port conflicts              |
+| Playout stall / slate mode | `curl http://<host>:8081/health` — mode=slate | Check playlist file, media paths, disk space                  |
+| Chat not connecting        | `curl http://<host>:3000/health`              | Check Redis: `docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping`    |
+| Admin 401 loop             | Cookie not sent                               | Verify `X-Forwarded-Proto: https`, nginx auth_request headers |
+| Upload fails (413)         | File too large                                | Check nginx `client_max_body_size` (should be 64m+)           |
+| HLS not playing            | `curl http://<host>/hls/playlist.m3u8`        | Check playout health, HLS dir permissions                     |
+| Prometheus no targets      | `curl http://<host>:9090/targets`             | Verify container network, scrape config                       |
+| Grafana no data            | Check datasource                              | Verify Prometheus URL `http://prometheus:9090` provisioned    |
+
+Additional notes: proxy-layer body size limits can return 413 on upload; health checks may fail before service warmup completes.

+| LowDiskSpace         | warning  | Disk <10% free for 5m                  |
+
+## Access
+
+- Prometheus: `http://<host>:9090` (targets, graph, alerts)
+- Grafana: `http://<host>:3001` (default: admin/admin, change via `GRAFANA_PASSWORD`)
+
+## Dashboards
+
+- **Linear Void app**: `monitoring/grafana/dashboard.json` — clients, messages, moderation, Redis, sessions, scrape health
+- **Prometheus ops**: `monitoring/grafana/dashboards/dashboard.json` — TSDB, CPU/memory, WAL, compactions, query latency
+
+## Metrics Checking
+
+See detailed scripts for querying Prometheus scrape targets:
+
+- [Linux/macOS](./infrastructure/monitoring/prometheus_curl.md)
+
+## Key Metrics
+
+- `linearvoid_chat_connected_clients` — active WebSocket connections
+- `linearvoid_chat_messages_total` — total stored messages
+- `linearvoid_chat_dms_total` — private messages sent
+- `linearvoid_chat_redis_up` — Redis reachable (0/1)
+- `linearvoid_playout_restarts_total` — FFmpeg restart counter
+- `linearvoid_playout_mode` — 0=live, 1=slate, 2=degraded
+- `linearvoid_chat_admin_sessions_active` — active admin logins
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom                 | Check                                                                |
+| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| No chat metrics         | `curl http://chat:3000/metrics` from Prometheus container            |
+| No exporter metrics     | Verify exporter containers running: `docker ps \| grep exporter`     |
+| Grafana no data         | Datasource URL must be `http://prometheus:9090`                      |
+| Prometheus targets down | Check container network: all must be on `linearvoid-net`             |
+| Alert not firing        | Check Prometheus → Alerts tab, verify `rule_files` in prometheus.yml |
+
+**Grafana no data**: ensure datasource points to `http://prometheus:9090`; confirm Prometheus is healthy; check dashboard query labels match active jobs.
+
+**High cardinality / slow queries**: reduce unneeded labels; limit expensive panels; tune retention and query windows.
+
+## Operational Recommendations
+
+- Keep alert thresholds tied to actual user impact.
+- Review dashboards after each release that changes endpoints or metrics names.
+- Periodically test alert routing and incident response flow.
+- Retention: **30 days** time-based plus **15GB** size cap (`--storage.tsdb.retention.time=30d --storage.tsdb.retention.size=15GB` on the `prometheus` service in `docker-compose.yml` and `docker-compose.prod.yml`). Increase the size cap before extending the time window so the TSDB does not hit the disk limit first.

+```
+
+## Authentication & Sessions
+
+- Login: `POST /api/admin/login` → cookie `linearvoid_admin_session`
+- Cookie flags: `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Strict`, `Secure` (over HTTPS)
+- Server-side expiry via `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS`
+- Rate limit: 5 attempts/IP/5min via Redis
+
+## Transport Security (TLS/HSTS)
+
+- Cloudflare TLS mode: **Full (strict)** — valid origin cert required
+- nginx listens on 80 internally; Cloudflare handles TLS termination
+- HSTS header set by Cloudflare: `max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload`
+- WSS upgrade path: `/ws` through nginx → chat:3000
+
+## Network Isolation
+
+- All backend services on internal Docker network (`linearvoid-net`)
+- Only nginx port exposed to host (443/80)
+- Database, Redis, exporters inaccessible from outside
+- `docker-compose.prod.yml` keeps ports internal via `expose:` not `ports:`
+
+## Reverse Proxy Controls
+
+- `auth_request /api/admin/auth` gate on all `/admin` and `/api/admin` paths
+- Explicit `client_max_body_size 64m` for resumable upload chunks
+- WebSocket upgrade headers: `Upgrade`, `Connection` preserved
+- CORS headers on HLS: `Access-Control-Allow-Origin *`
+- XSS protection: CSP headers served by Cloudflare
+
+## Rate Limiting
+
+| Resource          | Limit | Window |
+| ----------------- | ----- | ------ |
+| WebSocket connect | 5/IP  | 60s    |
+| Chat messages     | 10/IP | 10s    |
+| Admin login       | 5/IP  | 5min   |
+
+Implemented via Redis `INCR` + `EXPIRE`.
+
+## Secrets Management
+
+- `.env` — local dev only, **gitignored**
+- Gitea Actions secrets (`CI_*` prefix) for CI/CD
+- Never commit: passwords, tokens, API keys, R2 credentials
+- Production `.env` provisioned manually on host, never checked in
+- Rotate admin password quarterly
+
+## Data Protection
+
+- PostgreSQL: chat history, moderation logs, media metadata
+- Redis: append-only persistence for presence, rate limits, sessions
+- HLS segments: ephemeral, regenerated by playout
+- Backups: `scripts/backup-db.sh` (daily), `scripts/backup-weekly.sh`, `scripts/verify-backups.sh`
+
+## Hardening Checklist
+
+- [ ] HTTPS/WSS enforced end-to-end (Cloudflare Full strict)
+- [ ] Strong admin credentials configured
+- [ ] Secrets only in env/secrets stores (never committed)
+- [ ] Proxy auth and websocket headers validated
+- [ ] Upload limits and MIME validation active
+- [ ] Rate limiting active (WS, messages, login)
+- [ ] Cloudflare WAF/rate-limit rules active
+- [ ] Backup/restore drills completed
+- [ ] Security alerts routed (Prometheus alertmanager)
+
+## Incident Response
+
+1. Detect — alerts (ChatDown, RedisDown, HighChatLatency) or user reports
+2. Triage — edge (Cloudflare), proxy (nginx), app (chat/playout), data (Redis/Postgres)
+3. Contain — rate limit, credential rotate, service restart, slate mode activation
+4. Recover — verify health endpoints, check Prometheus targets, validate HLS output
+5. Record — timeline + corrective actions in `docs/incident-runbook.md`

+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-08-03
+
+Prerequisites, environment setup, and running the app locally and in production. Architecture: [`docs/architecture/README.md`](./architecture/README.md).
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Docker + Docker Compose** — runs the full stack (playout, chat, nginx, redis, db, prometheus, grafana).
+- **Node.js 22+ / npm** — frontend dev and builds (`cd frontend && npm install && npm run build`).
+- **Go 1.25+** — working on the Go services outside Docker.
+- **FFmpeg** — playout HLS generation (`apt install ffmpeg`).
+- **Git**.
+- **Cloudflare account** — R2 storage + CDN.
+- **Gitea account** — image registry + CI/CD. Set Actions secrets at `https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/settings/actions/secrets`: `CI_REGISTRY_USER`, `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN` (scope `write:packages`), `ADMIN_USERNAME`, `ADMIN_PASSWORD`, `DATABASE_URL`.
+- **Hetzner Cloud (optional, prod)** — US-East VPS (Ashburn, VA per ADR-001).

+- **Test Lab (active):** internal `192.168.88.0/24`, host `192.168.88.40`; receives automated CD deploys from Gitea Actions. Used for staging validation.
+- **Production (pending):** Hetzner CX22, Ashburn VA — not yet provisioned. Compose/CD are ready; only `DOCKER_HOST` needs changing. See [DEPLOYMENT.md](./DEPLOYMENT.md).
+
+## Environment Setup
+
+1. `git clone https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid.git && cd linearvoid`
+2. `cp .env.example .env` then replace placeholders.
+3. Compose overrides: `docker-compose.yml` builds images locally and mounts `frontend/dist` into nginx; `docker-compose.prod.yml` pulls prebuilt images from Gitea.
+   - Internal URLs use compose hostnames: `REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0`, `DATABASE_URL=postgres://linearvoid:<pw>@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable`.
+   - Public routing: `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://linearvoid.tv`, `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL=wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`, `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
+4. Create data dirs: `mkdir -p data/playlist data/media data/hls data/chat`
+5. Optional: place normalized MP4s in `data/media/` and create `data/playlist/playlist.txt` (see ADR-001 for normalization).
+
+## Gitea Setup
+
+1. User with repo + registry access; generate a token (scope `write:packages`) stored as `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`.
+2. Set Actions secrets (see Prerequisites) to enable automated CI/CD and deploys.
+3. Set registry vars: `CI_REGISTRY_URL`, `CI_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE` (e.g. `zwitschi/linearvoid`), `CI_REGISTRY_USER`.
+4. Auth: `docker login git.allucanget.biz`.
+5. Local dev builds from source; prod pulls `playout`, `chat`, `nginx` images from the registry namespace. Verify `:latest` tags exist before rollout.
+
+## Cloudflare R2 Setup
+
+1. Create R2 bucket (e.g. `linearvoid-media`, matching `R2_BUCKET_NAME`); generate an access key pair → `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_REGION=auto`.
+2. S3 endpoint: `https://<account-id>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com` → `R2_ENDPOINT`.
+3. Attach `media.linearvoid.tv` as custom media domain → `MEDIA_DOMAIN`; add CORS allowing `https://linearvoid.tv` GET for HLS delivery.
+4. Point `linearvoid.tv` (+ `www` redirect) at the app entrypoint; keep `media.*` on R2. Proxied DNS, TLS **Full (strict)**.
+5. Apply the `.m4s`/`.m3u8` cache rules from [`cache-rules.md`](./infrastructure/cloudflare/cache-rules.md); enable Smart Tiered Cache; deploy the [`linearvoid-media` worker](../infrastructure/cloudflare/) on `media.linearvoid.tv` (replace the R2 bucket's direct custom-domain binding on that host) to enforce immutable segment caching + HLS CORS.
+6. Verify: `aws s3 ls --endpoint-url $R2_ENDPOINT`; check cache hit ratio after serving traffic.
+
+## Running the Application
+
+### Local development
+
+```bash
+docker compose up --build      # start all services
+docker compose down            # stop
+```
+
+Access: app/admin `https://linearvoid.tv` (via proxy) or `http://localhost`; WS `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws` / `ws://localhost/ws`. Health: playout `:8081/health`, chat `:3000/health`. Monitoring: Prometheus `:9090`, Grafana `:3001` (default `admin/admin`).
+
+Frontend dev (optional): `cd frontend && npm install && npm run dev` (http://localhost:5173, proxies API). For nginx-backed local runs: `npm run build` (nginx serves `frontend/dist`).
+
+### Test lab (remote Docker host)
+
+Deploy to `192.168.88.40` over Docker's TCP socket (port `2375`).
+
+Enable TCP on Alpine host — edit `/etc/conf.d/docker`:
+
+```bash
+DOCKER_OPTS="-H unix:///var/run/docker.sock -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375"
+```
+
+Then `rc-service docker restart`; verify with `netstat -tlnp | grep 2375`; allow port `2375` from `192.168.88.0/24` in the firewall.
+
+Deploy from a machine with the Docker CLI:
+
+```bash
+export DOCKER_HOST="tcp://192.168.88.40:2375"
+docker info                                   # confirm remote host
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --remove-orphans   # registry images
+# or build from source: docker compose up -d --build
+unset DOCKER_HOST                             # back to local
+```
+
+Health: `http://192.168.88.40:8081/health` (playout), `:3000/health` (chat), nginx entrypoint `:8080`.
+
+### Coolify deployment
+
+Coolify replaces the Gitea CD `DOCKER_HOST` orchestration (Cloudflare DNS/R2/cache unchanged). Install (`curl -fsSL https://cdn.coollabs.io/coolify/install.sh | bash`), add the target server via SSH, create a Docker Compose resource from `docker-compose.prod.yml` (or the repo), configure env vars in Coolify's store, map persistent `data/` and named volumes, and assign `linearvoid.tv` to nginx for Traefik TLS. Full walkthrough: [`COOLIFY.md`](./COOLIFY.md).
+
+### Production setup
+
+1. Provision a Linux VPS (Docker, Compose, Git); open HTTP/HTTPS ports.
+2. `git clone … && cd linearvoid && cp .env.example .env`.
+3. Set production `.env`: strong `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`/`GRAFANA_PASSWORD`, compose-hostname internal URLs, `MEDIA_DOMAIN=media.linearvoid.tv`, public `VITE_PUBLIC_*` URLs. For local-only testing bypassing the proxy, use `http://localhost`/`ws://localhost/ws`/`http://localhost/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
+4. `mkdir -p data/playlist data/media data/hls data/chat`.
+5. Ensure `playout`, `chat`, `nginx` images exist in the registry; `docker login` from the VPS.
+6. Deploy: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull && docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`.
+7. Verify: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps`, health endpoints, HLS written to `data/hls`, media domain serves via Cloudflare.
+8. Harden: HTTPS in front of nginx (Cloudflare, `www` → apex), restrict Grafana/Prometheus to trusted IPs, run under systemd for auto-start.
+
+### Production (Hetzner VPS + Cloudflare)
+
+1. Provision CX22 in Ashburn, VA (ADR-001).
+2. Cloudflare: R2 bucket (`enam` hint), deploy the [`linearvoid-media` worker](../infrastructure/cloudflare/) on `media.linearvoid.tv` + cache rules, `linearvoid.tv`/`www` at the app entrypoint with `www`→apex redirect, Full (strict) TLS.
+3. Deploy from the project: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d` (or pull from Gitea registry); manage under systemd.
+4. Monitoring: Grafana dashboards from `monitoring/grafana/`.
+
+See `docs/architecture/README.md` (arc42) and the ADRs for decisions and cost/scaling guidance (ADR-001).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **R2 upload fails** — check `.env` creds/bucket; `aws s3 ls --endpoint-url=$R2_ENDPOINT`.
+- **Normalization errors** — run `backend/playout/start-playout.sh` to see ffprobe output. Video must be H.264/AAC, 30 fps constant, 2s keyframes (ADR-001).
+- **Chat won't connect** — check Redis and WS URL; `/health` should return 200.
+- **Cache not working** — verify `.m4s` long-TTL / `.m3u8` short-TTL cache rules and hit ratio.
+- **Docker issues** — `docker compose logs`; check port conflicts.
+- **Admin interface** — `ADMIN_USERNAME`, `ADMIN_PASSWORD`, `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS` set; session-based login protects `/admin/` and `/api/admin/*`.
+- **Prod pull fails** — `docker login` to Gitea succeeded and image tags exist.

+# Streaming Pipeline
+
+Operational contract for Linear Void video ingest, playout, publication, caching, and browser playback. Deployment, chat, admin details live in `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `SETUP.md`, `API.md`.
+
+## Production flow
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A["Normalized MP4 assets"] --> B["Playlist and schedule"]
+    B --> C["Playout service and FFmpeg"]
+    C --> D["Local HLS staging"]
+    D --> E["R2 object storage"]
+    E --> F["Cloudflare edge"]
+    F --> G["hls.js or native HLS"]
+```
+
+The playout service is the timeline authority. It reads the ordered playlist, runs FFmpeg continuously, stages a live HLS window under `data/hls/`, and publishes complete objects to R2. Viewers read only the public R2 custom domain through Cloudflare:
+
+```text
+https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8
+```
+
+Nginx `/hls/` is a local/test fallback, not the production origin. The SPA, admin API, and chat use `linearvoid.tv`; media uses `media.linearvoid.tv`.
+
+## Source-media contract
+
+Only validated files may enter the production playlist.
+
+| Property   | Required profile                                                        |
+| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Container  | MP4                                                                     |
+| Video      | H.264/AVC, `yuv420p`                                                    |
+| Resolution | 1280x720 or 1920x1080; avoid resolution changes within a playlist block |
+| Frame rate | Constant 30 fps                                                         |
+| GOP        | Closed, fixed 2 seconds: `-g 60 -keyint_min 60 -sc_threshold 0`         |
+| Audio      | AAC-LC, stereo, 48 kHz, 128–192 kbit/s                                  |
+
+The ingest gate uses `ffprobe` to reject incompatible codecs, variable frame rate, missing audio, invalid dimensions, or wrong keyframe cadence. Assets are immutable after acceptance; corrections create a new asset ID/object key.
+
+Reference normalization:
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i input.mov \
+  -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 21 \
+  -r 30 -g 60 -keyint_min 60 -sc_threshold 0 \

+  -c:a aac -b:a 160k -ar 48000 -ac 2 \
+  -movflags +faststart \
+  output-normalized.mp4
+```
+
+## Playlist and timeline
+
+- `data/playlist/playlist.txt`: one local media path per line; blank lines and `#` comments ignored.
+- Service validates the complete playlist before activating a revision.
+- Playlist edits are atomic and get a revision ID. The active FFmpeg run keeps its current item and adopts the new revision at the next item boundary.
+- All viewers follow the same live manifest; clients never calculate the schedule independently.
+- Schedule metadata derives from the same active revision/timeline so "now/next" agrees with the video.
+- When the last item ends, playout returns to the first unless an active schedule override says otherwise.
+
+## Playout and HLS packaging
+
+The playout service wraps FFmpeg, tracks the active item/revision, restarts failed processes, and exposes `/health` plus Prometheus metrics.
+
+| Setting          | Value                                                                    |
+| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Protocol         | Standard live HLS, not LL-HLS                                            |
+| Segment format   | fMP4 (`.m4s`) with init segment; `.ts` may be supported during migration |
+| Segment target   | 2 seconds (`HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION=2`)                                     |
+| Live window      | 12 segments (`HLS_WINDOW_SIZE=12`), ~24 seconds                          |
+| Codec path       | Stream copy for conforming assets; no per-viewer transcoding             |
+| Expected latency | 15–35 seconds                                                            |
+
+Segment boundaries must align with keyframes; timestamps must stay monotonic across item boundaries. If FFmpeg cannot preserve a seamless timeline, insert `#EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY` and publish the corresponding new init segment.
+
+**Segment duration rationale**: 2s lowers latency and keeps the window small (12 × 2s = 24s) while staying above the manifest TTL (1–2s). The 2s GOP (30fps, `-g 60`) already matches the target, so segments cut cleanly on keyframes. Longer (4–6s) raises latency and window depth; shorter than 2s inflates segment/request overhead and R2 Class B ops with little gain.
+
+Every segment name is globally unique and never reused, including after restart or playlist loop — use a run/session ID plus a monotonically increasing media sequence:
+
+```text
+hls/r-20260807T170412Z/init-000001.mp4
+hls/r-20260807T170412Z/seg-000001234.m4s
+```
+
+A URL advertised as immutable must never later contain different bytes.
+
+## Safe publication to R2
+
+Order prevents a manifest referencing an unavailable segment:
+
+1. FFmpeg writes a segment to a temp local name and closes it.
+2. Publisher uploads the init segment (if new) and media segment to final immutable R2 keys.
+3. Verify upload success; record object size/checksum.
+4. Render the next manifest referencing only confirmed objects.
+5. Upload the manifest to a temp key, then replace `hls/playlist.m3u8` as the final commit step.
+
+Never upload an actively written segment or publish the manifest first. Use a single publisher (or fencing/leader election) so two workers can't update the live manifest concurrently.
+
+**Run-scoped manifest URIs.** Segments and the init file are stored run-scoped under `hls/r-{runID}/…`, so the live `hls/playlist.m3u8` must reference them with that run prefix. Before the final commit step, the publisher rewrites each bare relative media URI (segments plus `#EXT-X-MAP:URI`) to `r-{runID}/<name>`. `publishManifest` in `backend/playout/src/playlist.go` does this via `rewriteManifestToRun`, using the same `runID` under which the segments were uploaded; the rewrite is skipped in slate mode (its manifest is served as-is). The published manifest therefore contains, e.g.:
+
+```m3u8
+#EXT-X-MAP:URI="r-20260807T170412Z/init.mp4"
+#EXTINF:2.000000,
+r-20260807T170412Z/seg-000001234.m4s
+```
+
+The `linearvoid-media` Worker on `media.linearvoid.tv` is a faithful path→R2 mapper and serves these run-scoped paths directly; it does **not** rewrite URIs at serve time.
+
+`data/hls/` is regenerable staging. Source media, playlist revisions, and schedule state are authoritative; generated HLS is not backed up as application state.
+
+## Cache contract
+
+| Objects                    | Edge policy                 | Browser policy                          | Required headers/behavior                                                    |
+| -------------------------- | --------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `.m4s`, `.ts`, init `.mp4` | Cache eligible; TTL 1 year  | TTL 1 year                              | `Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable`; full path in cache key |
+| Live `.m3u8`               | Cache eligible; edge TTL 2s | Do not retain beyond freshness interval | `Cache-Control: public, max-age=1, s-maxage=2, must-revalidate`              |
+| Versioned JS/CSS           | Cache eligible; TTL 1 year  | TTL 1 year                              | Content-hashed filenames and `immutable`                                     |
+
+Further rules:
+
+- No query-string cache busters on segment URLs; uniqueness belongs in the path.
+- Cache keys preserve hostname and full path; ignore only explicitly approved tracking params.
+- HLS responses need `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://linearvoid.tv` (or reviewed allowlist), `GET`/`HEAD`/`OPTIONS`, and correct MIME types.
+- Enable Smart Tiered Cache for `media.linearvoid.tv` to cut R2 reads on regional misses.
+- Purge manifests when necessary, never immutable segments during normal operation.
+- Retain expired-window segments at least max manifest TTL + retry/grace time; practical minimum 1 hour; lifecycle deletion may run later per storage policy.
+
+Validation:
+
+```bash
+curl -I https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8
+curl -I https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/<segment>.m4s
+```
+
+The manifest must refresh within seconds; repeated segment requests should progress `CF-Cache-Status: MISS` → `HIT`, keep the same ETag/content length, and carry the immutable cache header.
+
+## Player behavior
+
+SPA uses native HLS where supported, hls.js elsewhere.
+
+- Firefox has no native HLS → hls.js/MSE path; fMP4 (`.m4s` + init) is supported. Autoplay needs `muted` + `playsinline`, already set on the `<video>` element.
+- Start at the live edge with a conservative buffer; do not seek to playlist start.
+- Treat the manifest as the sync source; target ~3 segments behind the newest unless testing supports a smaller margin.
+- Recover transient network/media errors with bounded retries + exponential backoff.
+- On fatal hls.js network error, reload the manifest; on fatal media error, attempt media recovery once before recreating the player.
+- If tab suspension/drift leaves playback materially behind the target, seek forward rather than play the backlog.
+- Surface a clear reconnecting state; never silently loop stale media.
+- Schedule/chat timestamps should account for measured player latency, not wall-clock playout.
+
+## Failure and recovery
+
+The service retries an item failure with bounded backoff. Past the failure threshold it switches to a pre-normalized looping slate and reports `mode=slate`, periodically retrying normal playout, returning only after a segment and committed manifest publish successfully.
+
+On process/host restart:
+
+- create a new run/session ID and continue with unique segment paths;
+- resume from schedule-derived current position when reliable state exists, else start the current playlist item;
+- never overwrite old segment objects;
+- keep the last valid manifest available until the replacement is playable;
+- emit a discontinuity when timeline continuity isn't guaranteed.
+
+`/health` must report more than "process running": at least mode (`live`/`slate`/`starting`/`degraded`), active item, playlist revision, run ID, last segment sequence/time, last successful R2 publication, consecutive failures, uptime. Mark unhealthy if the manifest or media sequence hasn't advanced for more than two segment durations.
+
+## Monitoring and acceptance
+
+Monitor/alert on: manifest age and media-sequence advancement; time since last published segment; FFmpeg restarts and consecutive failures; live/slate mode; R2 upload latency/errors; segment 404/5xx and manifest/segment latency; Cloudflare cache-hit ratio, origin requests, R2 Class B ops; player startup, fatal errors, rebuffer ratio, live-edge drift; local staging disk usage.
+
+A release is streaming-ready only when: one full playlist boundary plays without timestamp errors; the manifest never references a missing object; a second viewer joins the same timeline; cache headers match the table; a forced FFmpeg failure activates slate; and normal playout recovers without reusing an object URL.

+
+Triage order for Linear Void incidents. Work top-to-bottom — each tier depends on the one above.
+
+## Triage Order
+
+1. **Edge Reachability** (Cloudflare)
+2. **Origin Health** (VPS/Docker)
+3. **Playout Progression** (HLS)
+4. **Chat Connectivity** (WebSocket)
+5. **Data-Plane** (Redis/DB)
+
+## 1. Edge Reachability (Cloudflare)
+
+**Symptoms:** `linearvoid.tv` not resolving, SSL errors, 5xx from Cloudflare.
+
+```bash
+dig linearvoid.tv
+dig www.linearvoid.tv
+curl -I https://linearvoid.tv/health
+```
+
+**Common causes:** DNS misconfiguration (A record → wrong IP); Cloudflare proxy disabled (grey cloud exposes origin); SSL certificate expired (Cloudflare → SSL/TLS); Cloudflare outage ([cloudflarestatus.com](https://www.cloudflarestatus.com)).
+
+**Mitigation:** Verify A record points `linearvoid.tv` → origin IP (proxied, orange cloud). Bypass Cloudflare temporarily:
+
+```bash
+curl -H "Host: linearvoid.tv" http://<origin-ip>/health
+```
+
+## 2. Origin Health (VPS/Docker)
+
+**Symptoms:** Cloudflare 502/504, containers down.
+
+```bash
+docker -H tcp://192.168.88.40:2375 ps
+docker -H tcp://192.168.88.40:2375 logs linearvoid-nginx --tail 50
+curl http://192.168.88.40/health
+```
+
+**Common causes:** Host disk full (`df -h`); Docker daemon stopped (`systemctl status docker`); container restart loop (`docker ps -a --filter "status=exited"`); OOM (`dmesg | grep -i oom`).
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d   # restart stack
+docker system prune -f                            # free disk
+docker logs linearvoid-<service> --tail 100       # per-service logs
+```
+
+## 3. Playout Progression (HLS)
+
+**Symptoms:** Viewer sees slate or buffering, playlist not advancing.
+
+```bash
+curl http://192.168.88.40:8081/health             # "mode": "live" or "slate"
+curl -I http://192.168.88.40/hls/playlist.m3u8
+ls -la data/hls/
+docker logs linearvoid-playout --tail 100
+```
+
+**Common causes:** FFmpeg crash → slate fallback (health `degraded`); playlist empty/missing (`cat data/playlist/playlist.txt`); media file missing (`ls data/media/`); disk full → HLS segments can't write.
+
+**Mitigation:** Validate playlist entries and media paths; restart playout (`docker compose restart playout`); regenerate demo playlist if empty (see `backend/playout/start-playout.sh`).
+
+## 4. Chat Connectivity (WebSocket)
+
+**Symptoms:** Chat not loading, messages not sending, presence broken.
+
+```bash
+curl http://192.168.88.40:3000/health
+wscat -c ws://192.168.88.40/ws?username=test&room=main
+docker logs linearvoid-chat --tail 100
+```
+
+**Common causes:** Redis down → presence/rate-limiting degraded (chat still works); DB down → messages not persisting; port not exposed (`docker port linearvoid-chat`).
+
+**Mitigation:** Restart chat (`docker compose restart chat`); check Redis (`docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping`); check DB (`docker exec linearvoid-db pg_isready -U linearvoid`). Chat degrades gracefully without Redis — look for "Redis connection warning" in logs.
+
+## 5. Data-Plane (Redis/DB)
+
+**Symptoms:** Chat works but no persistence/presence, admin stats empty.
+
+```bash
+docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping
+docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli info memory
+docker exec linearvoid-db pg_isready -U linearvoid
+docker exec linearvoid-db psql -U linearvoid -c "SELECT count(*) FROM messages;"
+```
+
+**Common causes:** Redis OOM (check `maxmemory`); PostgreSQL connection limit; disk full on volume mount.
+
+**Mitigation:** Restart redis (`docker compose restart redis`, AOF persist enabled); restart db (`docker compose restart db`); restore from backup (see `scripts/verify-backups.sh`).
+
+## Escalation
+
+| Severity | When                                 | Action                                      |
+| -------- | ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- |
+| Critical | Slate active >30min, complete outage | Trigger DR plan, provision fallback host    |
+| Warning  | Redis down, high CPU >30min          | Investigate business hours, restart service |
+| Info     | Single service blip                  | Monitor; no action unless recurring         |
+
+## Post-Incident
+
+1. Document timeline in incident channel

+3. Add prevention to docs if actionable
+4. Update this runbook if new failure mode discovered
+
+## Quarterly Disaster Recovery Drill
+
+Validate recovery targets under controlled host-loss simulation: **RPO ≤ 24h, RTO ≤ 60min**.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Latest backups from `scripts/backup-db.sh` and `scripts/backup-weekly.sh`
+- Operator access to Docker host and DNS controls
+- Current deployment variables (`.env`, compose file, image tags)
+
+### Scope
+
+- Simulate complete origin loss (all app containers unavailable)
+- Rebuild stack on clean host
+- Restore DB and media/playlist mounts
+- Verify viewer playback, chat, admin auth, monitoring targets
+
+### Steps
+
+1. Record drill start timestamp and on-call participants.
+2. Capture pre-drill baseline:
+   ```bash
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>/health
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>:3000/health
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>:8081/health
+   ```
+3. Simulate outage: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down`
+4. Provision clean recovery host (or clean test-lab VM); copy deployment bundle.
+5. Restore data paths: `data/playlist/`, `data/media/`, `data/chat/`, `data/hls/` (optional warm cache).
+6. Restore database from latest backup dump.
+7. Start stack: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
+8. Validate health and runtime:
+   ```bash
+   docker ps --format "table {{.Names}}\t{{.Status}}"
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>/health
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>/hls/playlist.m3u8 | head -n 5
+   curl -fsS http://<origin>:9090/-/ready
+   ```
+9. Validate app behavior: viewer SPA loads and HLS plays; WebSocket chat connects with message round-trip; admin login/session endpoint succeeds.
+10. Run backup integrity check: `scripts/verify-backups.sh`
+11. Record drill end timestamp; compute measured RTO/RPO.
+
+### Pass/Fail Criteria
+
+- **Pass:** all core services healthy and functional in ≤ 60 min.
+- **Pass:** latest recoverable data point ≤ 24 h old.
+- **Fail:** any critical path remains degraded (playout, chat, admin auth, monitoring).
+

+# Cloudflare Cache Rules for Linear Void (per ADR-001)
+
+## Recommended Cache Rules for media.linearvoid.tv
+
+1. **.m4s and .ts segments (immutable)**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "media.linearvoid.tv" and (http.request.uri.path contains ".ts" or http.request.uri.path contains ".m4s"))
+   - Cache status: Eligible for cache
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 1 month (or `Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable` from origin)
+   - Cache Everything: Yes
+
+2. **.m3u8 manifests (live)**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "media.linearvoid.tv" and http.request.uri.path contains ".m3u8")
+   - Cache status: Eligible for cache
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 2 seconds
+   - Cache-Control: public, max-age=2, must-revalidate
+
+3. **Static assets**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "linearvoid.tv" and http.request.uri.path contains ".js" or http.request.uri.path contains ".css")
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 1 year (with hash in filename for immutable caching)
+
+**Tiered Cache**: Enable Smart Tiered Cache for R2 custom domain to reduce origin requests.
+
+**WAF**: Enable basic rate limiting and bot management for /ws and admin routes.
+
+These rules ensure high cache hit ratio for .m4s and .ts segments while keeping live manifests fresh. Monitor cache hit ratio in Cloudflare analytics.

+# Cloudflare Workers Setup — Linear Void

+

+| ----------- | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Workers** | Static SPA hosting | `linearvoid-frontend` (`frontend/wrangler.toml`) — Vite SPA (`frontend/dist`) static assets  |
+| **Workers** | Edge HLS delivery  | `linearvoid-media` (`infrastructure/cloudflare/`) — R2-bound Worker on `media.linearvoid.tv` |
+
+Both are managed under **Workers & Pages** in the Cloudflare dashboard.
+
+## Dashboard URLs
+
+| Resource                 | URL                                                                                                                       |

+
+## Worker: `linearvoid-media` (edge HLS delivery)
+
+The Worker in [`infrastructure/cloudflare/`](../../infrastructure/cloudflare/) runs on the `linearvoid-media` Workers service. It owns the `media.linearvoid.tv` host, serves HLS objects from the R2 bucket (bound as `MEDIA_BUCKET`), and stamps immutable `Cache-Control` on segments plus a short TTL on live manifests (CORS + Range supported). See its [README](../../infrastructure/cloudflare/README.md).
+
+**Run-scoped layout.** R2 objects are stored run-scoped (`hls/r-{runID}/seg-*.m4s`, `…/init.mp4`), and the live `hls/playlist.m3u8` references them with the run prefix (the playout rewrites bare URIs before publishing — see [`docs/STREAMING.md`](../STREAMING.md)). The Worker is a faithful path→R2 mapper: it serves whatever key the request path resolves to (e.g. `/hls/r-…/seg-*.m4s`), adds the cache headers by file type, and does not rewrite manifest URIs at serve time.
+
+Test / deploy:
+
+```bash
+cd infrastructure/cloudflare
+npm install && npm test              # unit + Miniflare R2 tests
+npx wrangler deploy                  # preview/test target
+npx wrangler deploy --env production # attach media.linearvoid.tv
+```
+
+Attach the production custom domain only after removing `media.linearvoid.tv` from the R2 bucket's direct custom-domain binding. Automated production deploy: [`.gitea/workflows/workers-media-deploy.yml`](../../.gitea/workflows/workers-media-deploy.yml).
+
+## Worker: static frontend
+
+Serve the Vite-built SPA (`frontend/dist`) as Worker static assets:
+
+1. Build the frontend: `cd frontend && npm run build`.
+2. Bind `frontend/dist` to the Worker as static assets (Workers Static Assets / `assets` in `wrangler.toml`).
+3. Attach the `linearvoid.tv` custom domain to the Worker.
+
+See [gitea-cloudflare-workers.md](./gitea-cloudflare-workers.md) for the automated deployment workflow.
+
+### Build-time variables
+
+The `VITE_PUBLIC_*` values are baked into the bundle at build time by Vite (`vite.config.ts` uses `envDir: ".."` to read them from the repo root). They are supplied by the Gitea Actions build environment from Gitea secrets — not as Worker runtime variables. The static-assets Worker has no runtime JavaScript, so it reads no `env` at request time.
+
+| Name                                     | Value                                           |
+| ---------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL`                    | `https://linearvoid.tv`                         |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL`                     | `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`                        |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL`                    | `https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8` |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_MODERATOR`    | `boogers`                                       |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_ROOM`         | `main`                                          |
+| `VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_MODERATION_LOG_LIMIT` | `50`                                            |
+
+Backend services (playout, chat, nginx) read their own runtime variables (`ADMIN_*`, `HLS_*`, `PLAYLIST_PATH`, `R2_*`, `DATABASE_URL`, `REDIS_URL`) from the container environment — see [`.env.example`](../../.env.example).
+
+## Custom domains
+
+- `linearvoid.tv` → Worker (static SPA, `linearvoid-frontend`)
+- `www.linearvoid.tv` → redirect to `linearvoid.tv`
+- `media.linearvoid.tv` → Worker (`linearvoid-media`, R2-bound) serving the `linearvoid-media` bucket

+# Gitea to Cloudflare Workers — Linear Void
+
+## Goal
+
+Deploy the Linear Void frontend (Vite + TypeScript SPA) from Gitea to Cloudflare Workers using Gitea Actions and Wrangler.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. **Cloudflare Worker** for the SPA:
+   - Dashboard → Workers & Pages → Create → Worker (or Workers Static Assets).
+   - Name it `linearvoid-frontend` (the edge-cache Worker already uses the `linearvoid` name).
+2. **API token** with Workers permissions:
+   - Create at <https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens>
+   - Permission: `Account → Workers Scripts → Edit` and `Account → Workers Routes → Edit`
+   - Store in Gitea → Settings → Secrets as `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`
+3. **Account ID** from Cloudflare dashboard overview → store as `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`
+4. **Wrangler config** (`frontend/wrangler.toml`) binding the `frontend/dist` output as static assets.
+
+> **Naming:** Workers share a namespace under "Workers & Pages". The media edge Worker is `linearvoid-media` ([`infrastructure/cloudflare/`](../../infrastructure/cloudflare/wrangler.toml), deployed via `.gitea/workflows/workers-media-deploy.yml`) and the SPA Worker is `linearvoid-frontend` (`frontend/wrangler.toml`, deployed via `.gitea/workflows/workers-deploy.yml`).

+## Verify deployment
+
+1. Push to `main` or trigger manually from Gitea Actions.
+2. Check **Gitea Actions** → job logs for the deploy step.
+3. Check **Cloudflare Workers** → `linearvoid-frontend` → Deployments for the new version.
+4. Visit `https://linearvoid-frontend.zwitschi82.workers.dev`, then attach `linearvoid.tv` when ready.
+
+## Notes
+
+- The existing `ci.yml` already builds the frontend; the Workers deploy workflow is additive and independent.
+- Multi-page SPA (`vite.config.ts`) produces three entry points — Workers static assets serve them correctly.
+- For SPA fallback routing, set Workers static assets `not_found_handling` to `single-page-application` (serve `index.html` for unknown paths).
+- The deploy workflow lives in `.gitea/workflows/workers-deploy.yml` (triggered after CI succeeds).
+
+## Related resources

+# Scaling and Performance Playbook
+
+Purpose: define a repeatable method to measure performance, capture baselines, and decide scaling actions for the "Linear Void" streaming app. Scope: planning/execution for the "Scaling & Performance (planning only)" TODO items.
+
+## 1) Manifest TTL Tuning Plan
+
+Goal: tune the `.m3u8` TTL to ~`0.5x` segment duration while keeping playback stable.
+
+Inputs: segment duration (`HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION`), current manifest TTL (Cloudflare cache rule), cache outcome distribution (`Cf-Cache-Status`).
+
+Procedure:
+1. Start from current manifest TTL (2s).
+2. Capture 24h baseline headers from repeated `playlist.m3u8` requests.
+3. Test candidate TTLs: 1s, 2s, 3s.
+4. Compare rebuffer events (player logs), origin request increase/decrease, and HIT ratio changes.
+5. Select the lowest TTL that keeps playback stable and origin load acceptable.
+
+Acceptance: no material increase in rebuffer rate; manifest staleness not observable by users.
+
+## 2) TTFB Baseline Plan
+
+Goal: measure warm-cache TTFB from 3+ US regions with target `< 4s`.
+
+Regions: US East (Virginia), US Central, US West (California/Oregon).
+
+Method:
+1. Use WebPageTest with repeat view enabled.
+2. Run at least 5 samples per region.
+3. Record median and p95 TTFB.
+4. Store results in a table (date, region, median, p95, test URL).
+
+Acceptance: warm-cache median < 4s in all regions; outliers documented with likely cause.
+
+### TTFB Baseline Worksheet
+Use one row per region; keep the raw WebPageTest result URL with the summary for comparison.
+
+- US East (Virginia) / US Central / US West (California/Oregon): Date/time, Test URL `https://linearvoid.tv`, WebPageTest result URL, Median TTFB, p95 TTFB, Notes.
+
+Capture notes: use repeat view for warm-cache; keep the same browser profile and test URL across regions; note any CDN cache-rule changes or deploys between samples.
+
+## 3) WebSocket Load-Test Plan
+
+Goal: characterize chat behavior across 10 → 100 → 500 → 1000 concurrent clients.
+
+Tooling option A (Artillery):
+```bash
+npx artillery run scripts/loadtest/ws-chat.yml
+```
+
+Tooling option B (custom Go harness): open N concurrent WS clients, send a message every X seconds, measure round-trip latency and failures.
+
+Metrics: p50/p95 message latency; error rate (connect/send/receive); dropped connections; CPU/memory for `chat`, `redis`, `nginx`.
+
+Acceptance: p95 chat latency ≤ 1s at target concurrency tier; error rate ≤ 1% during steady state.
+
+### WebSocket Load-Test Worksheet
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Test URL, Tool used, Scenario duration, Concurrency tiers reached, p50 message latency, p95 message latency, Error rate, Dropped connections, CPU/memory notes for chat/redis/nginx, Raw results location, Conclusion, Next action.
+
+## 4) Admin API Benchmark Plan
+
+Goal: measure admin API p95 and identify slow endpoints.
+
+Endpoints: `/api/admin/overview`, `/api/admin/analytics`, `/api/admin/chat-log`, `/api/admin/users`.
+
+Tooling option A (`k6`):
+```bash
+k6 run scripts/loadtest/admin-api.js
+```
+
+Tooling option B (`wrk`):
+```bash
+wrk -t4 -c100 -d60s http://<host>/api/admin/overview
+```
+
+Acceptance: p95 < 1s for primary admin endpoints; slow endpoint list with remediation notes.
+
+### Admin API Benchmark Worksheet
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Test URL, Tool used, Scenario duration, Concurrency/virtual users, `/api/admin/overview|analytics|chat-log|users` p95, Error rate, Slowest endpoint, Cache or DB notes, Raw results location, Conclusion, Next action.
+
+## 5) Cache Hit Ratio Tracking Plan
+
+Goal: track Cloudflare cache hit ratio and alert when below threshold.
+
+Implementation:
+1. Pull Cloudflare GraphQL analytics on schedule.
+2. Export to a Prometheus-compatible metric path.
+3. Add a Grafana panel with 5m/1h/24h windows.
+4. Alert when hit ratio < 90% for 15m.
+
+Reference exporter:
+- `scripts/cache-hit-ratio.js`
+- `scripts/cache-hit-ratio.sh` for scheduled tasks / manual runs
+- Example run: `export CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=... CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_TAG=... CLOUDFLARE_HOSTNAME=media.linearvoid.tv; node scripts/cache-hit-ratio.js`
+- Intended output: Prometheus text format on stdout, suitable for cron, a Node wrapper, or a small scrape endpoint.
+
+Metric target: `cache_hit_ratio >= 0.90`.
+
+### Cache Hit Ratio Worksheet
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Hostname, Window minutes, Cloudflare zone tag, Export command, Raw exporter output location, Hit requests, Total requests, Cache hit ratio, Threshold met, Notes.
+
+## 6) Capacity Trigger Rules
+
+Operational triggers:
+- Cache miss ratio > 10% for 15m
+- Chat p95 latency > 1s for 5m
+- Host CPU > 80% for 10m
+- Redis memory usage ratio (`linearvoid_chat_redis_memory_usage_ratio`) > 0.85 for 10m
+
+Action mapping:
+- Level 1: investigate + restart non-critical components
+- Level 2: scale service resources (CPU/RAM)
+- Level 3: activate standby planning path
+
+### Capacity Trigger Review
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Trigger hit, Threshold value, Observed value, Duration above threshold, Level selected, Immediate action taken, Services involved, Follow-up owner, Raw metrics/alert link, Notes.
+
+## 7) Phase 2 Service Separation Plan
+
+Objective: separate bottlenecked services while keeping ops simple.
+
+Boundaries:
+- `playout` isolated first (CPU-heavy)
+- `chat` + `redis` grouped for latency
+- `db` isolated for IO stability
+- monitoring stack optionally separated after sustained load
+
+Initial sizing:
+- playout host: 4 vCPU / 8 GB
+- chat host: 2–4 vCPU / 4–8 GB
+- db host: 2 vCPU / 4 GB + fast disk
+
+Exit criteria: repeated trigger events over 7 days; capacity saturation despite tuning.
+
+### Phase 2 Boundary Worksheet
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Trigger history summary, Repeated trigger count over 7 days, Primary bottleneck, Proposed split, `playout`/`chat`/`db` target host size, Monitoring separation needed, Data/state migration notes, Implementation owner, Review decision, Next action.
+
+## 8) Phase 3 Warm Standby Plan
+
+Objective: second-region resilience with DNS failover.
+
+Layout:
+- Primary: Hetzner Ashburn (US-East)
+- Standby: Hetzner Hillsboro (US-West)
+
+Design: warm standby stack deployed and health-checked; Redis replication or fallback mode documented; Postgres replication strategy selected (streaming replica or periodic snapshot restore); Cloudflare DNS failover policy defined (health-based or manual emergency switch).
+
+### Phase 3 Warm Standby Worksheet
+Date/time, Environment, Commit SHA/image tag, Primary region, Standby region, DNS failover mode, Redis strategy, Postgres strategy, Health check endpoints, Simulated cutover performed, Measured RTO, Measured RPO, Open risks, Implementation owner, Review decision, Notes.
+
+## 9) Data Capture Template
+For each benchmark run capture: Date/time, Environment (test-lab/staging/production), Commit SHA/image tag, Test scenario and duration, Raw metrics (latency, errors, resource usage), Conclusion and next action.
+
+## 10) Execution Order
+1. TTFB baseline
+2. WebSocket load profile
+3. Admin API benchmark
+4. Cache ratio panel + alerting
+5. Trigger tuning
+6. Phase 2 boundary decision
+7. Phase 3 standby design review
+
+## 11) Benchmark Run Sheet
+Use the same worksheet for every baseline/re-test so results stay comparable.
+
+Preconditions: confirm target environment and commit SHA/image tag; confirm Cloudflare cache rules are active when testing TTFB or manifest TTL; confirm chat, admin, and playout services are healthy before load testing.
+
+Run template:
+
+| Item                       | Value |
+| -------------------------- | ----- |
+| Date/time                  |       |
+| Environment                |       |
+| Commit SHA / image tag     |       |
+| Test scenario              |       |
+| Concurrency / sample count |       |
+| Command or tool            |       |
+| Raw results location       |       |
+| Conclusion                 |       |
+| Next action                |       |
+
+Suggested command mapping:
+- TTFB baseline: WebPageTest repeat-view run against `https://linearvoid.tv`.
+- WebSocket profile: `npx artillery run scripts/loadtest/ws-chat.yml` or the Go harness referenced above.
+- Admin API benchmark: `k6 run scripts/loadtest/admin-api.js` or `wrk -t4 -c100 -d60s http://<host>/api/admin/overview`.
+
+## 12) Scaling Decision Gate
+
+Default review gate after any benchmark batch:
+1. If warm-cache TTFB meets target but cache hit ratio falls below 90%, tune cache behavior before increasing capacity.
+2. If chat or admin latency exceeds target while CPU and memory remain low, prioritize query or handler optimization.
+3. If CPU, memory, or Redis saturation appears first, treat the Phase 2 service boundary guidance as the next action.
+4. If the same threshold trips on multiple runs across 7 days, open the Phase 2 or Phase 3 planning path instead of tuning in place.
+
+Decision note: keep the smallest change that restores the target metric and record the reason in the run sheet.
+
+## 13) Artifact-to-Worksheet Field Mapping
+Use when filling the WebSocket and Admin API worksheets from helper-generated artifacts.
+
+### WebSocket worksheet mapping
+Artifact sources: `artifacts/<timestamp>/ws-chat-report.json`, `artifacts/<timestamp>/ws-chat-summary.txt`.
+
+Field mapping:
+- `Tool used` → `artillery` (or `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.sh -s ws`)
+- `Raw results location` → artifact folder path for this run
+- `Concurrency tiers reached` → `ws-chat.yml` phases (`warmup-10`, `sustain-100`, `sustain-500`, `sustain-1000`)
+- `Error rate` → `vusers.failure_rate_percent` from `ws-chat-summary.txt`
+- `Dropped connections` → derive from `vusers.created - vusers.completed` (use `vusers.failed` as failure signal)
+- `p95 message latency` → first latency line under `summary.*` in `ws-chat-summary.txt` containing `p95=...`
+- `p50 message latency` → first latency line under `summary.*` in `ws-chat-summary.txt` containing `median=...`
+
+Notes: the exact `summary.*` metric names in Artillery output can vary by engine/plugins; if no latency summary field is emitted, record this explicitly and use server-side latency metrics as fallback evidence.
+
+### Admin API worksheet mapping
+Artifact sources: `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-summary.json`, `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-output.txt`, `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`.
+
+Field mapping:
+- `Tool used` → `k6` (or `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.sh -s admin`)
+- `Raw results location` → artifact folder path for this run
+- `/api/admin/overview|analytics|chat-log|users` p95 → `overview|analytics|chat_log|users` row `P95Ms` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- `Error rate` → `Global failure rate` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- `Slowest endpoint` → endpoint row with highest `P95Ms`
+
+Notes: keep the raw `admin-api-summary.json` file for audits and re-parsing; if an endpoint row is missing, treat it as a test/data issue and re-run with full endpoint coverage.
+
+Summary helper (bash): run `scripts/loadtest/summarize-artillery.sh <report.json>` after an Artillery WS run, and `scripts/loadtest/summarize-k6.sh <summary.json>` after a k6 admin run, to produce the artifact files used in the mappings above.
